Popping windshield noise

Took the 09 Sentra in for an oil change and mentioned to the tech I had a nasty popping noise at the base of the windshield. After a little investigating it was discovered that dirt and dust particles had fallen behind/underneath the windshield plastic base thingy, that the wipers poke through, and were grinding on the bottom of the w/shield. He cleaned it out and no more popping noise. Just thought I would share.

Thanks for the info. I have an 09 also no noise yet tho but it is something that all the B16 owners should be aware of as it will probably happen sooner or later to some of them
