Wiper chatter

Put a coat of polish or rain X on your windows. I've never had the problem, but I've never been without rain X on my windshield either.
There are a few other threads about this - the general recommendation was to clean the glass and then put something on it to smooth the wiper's path.
Aside from that, I have no idea.

Other than that like GW says, a coat of wax ( I use Zaino detailer Z-6) or Rain-X and the problem should disappear.

You can correct the angle by twisting the flat part of the wiper arm.
You will need pliers & something to wrap the arm so that it doesn't get scratched.

Thanks for the advice all.

Between the door and vent rattles and the wiper chatter this car sounds like a 37k piece of ****

I have the same exact wiper problem. The amount of rain coming down doesn't matter, but the chatter from the blades is enough to drive me crazy. With my other cars, I never needed any RainX etc on the windshield just so the wipers worked properly. I'm gonna have to take that route I guess but I don't feel that I should 'have' to.

Argentni,
Did you ever resolve your wiper chatter issue? I am getting this problem now. Today it was pouring and if I set the wipers at the fastest speed it's fine. As soon as the rain slows a bit and I set the wipers at a slower pace, it chatters/skips. If I pump the windshield fluids out then it's fine for a few seconds. I can't believe Infiniti has so many little issues.

The passenger side has always been fine.
I have cleaned the windshield with several times.
I replaced both wipers with Bosch Micro-edge and still chattering.
Any ideas?

Oops didn't noticed you already replaced them.

I've had my G for six months and on the test drive I noticed the same thing and asked them to replace prior to purchasing the car. Of course they'll comply since I was buying a car. Try to see if you can talk to your salesperson, if he/she is cool they can have it done for free. Good luck
