Problem overview

Some Audi Q7 owners report experiencing issues with their windshield wipers stopping halfway and producing loud noises. This problem may be attributed to a failing wiper motor, which is responsible for the movement of the wiper arms; if the motor is noisy but the wipers are not functioning properly, it could indicate a motor failure. Additionally, loose pivot nuts that secure the wiper arms to the motor can lead to inadequate contact with the windscreen, resulting in improper movement and noise. Furthermore, some owners have reported malfunctions with the wiper switch or linkage mechanism, disrupting the smooth operation of the wipers. It is recommended that affected owners have their Audi Q7 inspected by a certified mechanic to accurately diagnose and resolve these issues for optimal wiper performance.
