I've noticed that the driver's wiper on the S90 has been becoming less and less vertical since the summer.
The position where it stops and goes back down again has moved almost two inches further in to the screen.
The resting position seems to be in the same place though.

How would one go about adjusting this?
 
Is a hammer really the best piece of advice probably he best motoring forum in the UK™ can offer? :p
 
Apply mustard to the blade.

not sure really, has the arm been bashed/warped at all? if the wiper mount was simply twisted it would stand to reason that the motor would try to push it further down than its normal resting position. maybe get someone to activate the wipers whilst you look/listen from the outside, to see if the motor is trying to push it further down, but is unable to by design.

The obvious explanation is the wiper arm or mount is buckled or otherwise out of position, or the motor is shot.

That said it could be something as simple as a dodgy wire or bad contact. is there any visual problem - knackred blade, etc?
