How to properly maintain the windshield wipers on my BMW X3?

I've noticed that my windshield wipers on my BMW X3 are not working as well as they used to. What can I do to properly maintain them and ensure they are functioning at their best?

It's important to regularly clean your windshield wipers and the windshield itself to prevent build up and damage. Make sure to also check for any cracks or wear and tear on the wipers themselves and replace them as needed.

Using a windshield wiper fluid specifically designed for BMWs can also help prolong the life of your wipers. You can also try using a water repellent product on your windshield to help water bead off and prevent streaking.

It's also important to not use your windshield wipers on a dry surface, as this can cause unnecessary strain on them. Always use them when the windshield is wet for best results.
