XC90 Windshield Wiper Arm Assembly Installation

. The 2012 SUV was purchased with the driver's side arm not moving. It snapped but not sure how that could have happened though I haven't thought to check the hood.

Re: Replacing REAR subframe trailing arm bushings

I think the video is for the P3 platform, my car is P2.
