Talking Can someone check their driver side wiper arm for me?
My wiper blades were slapping the plastic "cowl" part so I readjusted the arm..
I think I fixed it.. next rain storm will prove me right or wrong..

Problem.. I am not sure if the arm is sitting correctly to the holder.
I've circled the area/gap in question with a red circle below...

EDIT: not sure why the last 2 pictures are upside down.

S.O.S...

I really don't want to try to find a LS460 at the local Target parking lot and have the owner come out while I am doing my deed.... :/

My LS makes that slap noise, but only when it's on high speed. I've considered adjusting it, but figured it would make the wiper rest position too high on the windshield.
