Rear wiper blade not cleaning properly, so thought I'd change it, as I had some 20" ones knocking about fitted that. Works fine nothing catches.

My question is as its longer 20" versus 16"will it put a strain on the motor. If so ill just cut the new blade to fit the old wiper.

Do you think it will put any more strain on the motor, gives a nice large sweep of rear window.

The wiper motor is not going to notice the difference. If it packs in, it would have done so with a 3"blade as well.

In contrast, in Trev's application where the difference between 3" and 20" could be considered more than substantial
