Wiper chattering due to RainX?
Used RainX washer fluid in my GLC 300 (2016) and now my wipers will not stop chattering. Took in to MB repair 3 times. Had my wipers checked (confirmed angled to spec), changed wipers twice, and wiper fluid has been flushed out. However, chattering still occurs. Anyone else have this problem? Any known fixes? Help.

I don't use rainx, but I do WAX the windshield and I notice the chattering as you put it from time to time immediately afterwards, but it goes away after the 1st rain or so.
If it really bothers you, I'd use dish soap (a degreaser) to remove anything that's left on your windshield and clean your wiper blades with it too..

remove rain-x - which is not easy.
the best stuff I ever found was called AQUAPEL.
Works great expelling water and does not really bother blades.
Hard to find in local stores
Rain Repellent Glass Treatment - Aquapel Glass Treatment
Think way back in the day STP vision blade was the same product.
Not made anymore so any you find is really old stock
