Hey guys, whenever I use my windshield washer fluid to clean the windshield the wipers swipe 3 times. I find this to be a little excessive, is it possible to change it to 2 swipes?

There isn't a way to change it and yeah I always felt like it's too many times. I usually just push it enough to where the sprayers will spray but the wipers don't move and manually use the wipers after.

I wish I could add more swipes. I end up manually swiping an additional one or two times after its done.

Umm .. I don't think he's really "bitching" about it.
I knew I wasn't the only one who thought 3 swipes was too much. The 3rd swipe always felt like i'm swiping on dry windshield.

hold it down longer... if you time it right should only swipe 2 times after you let go..

whats more annoying is I need to adjust the spray (keep forgetting) i end up spraying my rear windshield as well as the front...

Get yourself some chemical guys window cleaner and microfibers. I hate having a dirty windshield then spreading that dirt all over the place :)

Just make your girlfriend ride with you. Every time you hit a red light make her get out and clean it for you. problem solved.
