Hey i have to problems,
the first not so serious more a me off sort of thing. when my wipper blades are on even on intermeission, it thumps everytime it hits the top of the window and is ready to come down again, i have checked and it doesnt touch the side of the glass or anything else, i even moved it away from the window and tested it and it still thuds. only seems to be comming from the right hand side tho...

Second is, i hear a constand thudding noise (best weay i can describe) comming fr5om the rear of my car while driving over say 20kms an houror over, but evenw ith no music on a passanger cant hear it, im yet to have anyone in the rear seats to ask them. i think it might eitherr be a small hole in my xhaust or my diff.

am i juust being paranoid ?

If the wipers aren't scratching the screen and the they are wiping off the water well when you give it a squirt, I wouldn't worry about it. My wagon does the same thing, on the right side too.

You'll have to describe the noise more to give us a better idea.

Nah, doesn't sound like you're being paranoid. I've had a few cars with noisy wipers, (thudding) and they are damn annoying! If it's not stuffed wiper blades, I have no idea how to fix it though.

The noise in the rear you describe could be a wheel bearing. Does it get faster with speed?
