Considering it has rained EVERY SINGLE DAY since I've gotten my HHR, I feel I could somewhat qualify as an expert in the wiper department. LOL

Seriously though, I hadn't noticed the speed sensitive setting but will check that out when I'm out and about later.

I was somewhat disappointed in the coverage of the rear wiper. I didn't notice any noise but it's hard to hear over the squeals of my children everytime it goes. I dont' know why but they think that's the coolest thing EVER!

when you get upto about 40 or so that is when you can really notice

No noise here, but I had a bad streak of non wiped crap left on the window. Dealer fixed under the warranty with a good wiper. Maybe they had a bunch of junk wipers come out of the factory.

I just got back from a sunday drive in the rain. The wipers change at 50 mph on the fast int position.

Speaking of driving in the rain... anyone else notice a significant amount of 'blowback' on the windshield from the drivers-side wiper? By blowback- I mean when the wiper is at full sweep (closest to the A-Pilar)... and water that was just wiped gets forced (or blown?) BACK onto your windshield. I guess I should add this only seems to happen at 50mph+.

Although the windshield gets wiped clean (no streaks)- the blowback runs the length of the wiper and spreads like 3-4" off the wiper blade. That's (almost) INTO MY LINE OF SIGHT... and sometimes IS my line of sight if I need to be looking out of the windshield and slightly left!!!

Just curious if anyone else has experienced this?

I'll have to watch fot that next time it rains here, I've only had Sub Sub out in the rain once since I got her. My rear wiper is quiet although pretty usless with it's 3/4 sweep...LOL

Wish I could check it for you, but I live in So Cali, so we are likely done with "the rainy season"--3 hours scattered between October and April.

I rarely use the wipers due to RainX, but when they are used, I keep them on the slowest int. setting needed. Next road trip I will have to try this to see it actually happen.

I will watch this week. Its the rainy season here every day but Wednesday this week.

I have experienced the blow back situation also. Not really sure what can be done about it, but it is a little annoying at times.
