How to : 2015 merc rear windscreen wipers

My car DOES have a rear wiper and I hardly ever use it except when removing dew in the mornings or something.

Aren't all Mondeos hatchbacks though? I always think of Mondeo saloons as just streamlined hatchbacks because the rear glass is still part of the boot hatch.
 
Yes, pretty much. Was just saying that even with one, I don't use it much, so the OP needs to stop fussing. :)

Some Mondeos are saloons, but not all saloons are Mondeos?

Thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs?

Some penises are genitalia, but not all genitalia are penises?

The glass on the rear of the saloon is not part of the hatch at all

So there's tree types of Mondeos?

Saloon Saloon
Saloony Hatch
Full Hatch


Cant say I've ever noticed a proper Saloon Saloon Mondeo. Now every time I see a damned Mondeo I'll be looking to see if it's a proper salooon.

That 100% truth answer is that reversed flow due to the adverse pressure gradients causes... the water to sheer off the window. Very much analogous to flows in sudden expansion ...ducts. Yawn.

:D:D

But that is exactly why my rear window needs the wiper on in heavy rain. But there's a Saloon Mondeo?!?! :eek:

It looks saloony to me because there's a flat/horizontal area/lip between the window and the tail lights.

A focus actually looks like a hatchback.

A hatchback is a car that has a rear hatch that opens, even if it looks like a baked potato it will still be a hatch back if it had a rear hatch.

I'm always gobsmacked by the amount of people who dont understand the difference between a hatchback and a saloon or what constitutes a "door"

One of my friends refuses to believe that my Skoda Octavia hatchback is a hatchback.

But it's not surely, how can you claim a hatchback is a hatchback?:confused:

There are three types of Mondeo:
Saloon - 4 doors. 2 in front, 2 in rear.
Hatchback - 5 doors. 2 in front, 2 in rear, 1 for the boot.
Estate - 5 doors. 2 in front, 2 in rear, 1 for the boot.

Seriously how are you not understanding this? What the hell is a saloon saloon? Or saloony hatch?

I can have a hatchback limousine. Just because it's 15 feet long doesn't make it a saloony hatchback - it'll just be a hatchback.

Says the man who didn't notice that it didn't have one?

My car works just fine without one. The angle of the rear window keeps it clear.
More stupid to put something on that's not needed
