Noisy windscreen wipers on a 2016 Mini Cooper

The blades are supposed to flip over when they change direction at each end of their sweep to prevent them doing what yours are doing. Your blades are not flipping over.

Start by fitting new blades, adjust the angle to get them flipping over, and you could use something like Rain-Ex on the windscreen, and in the washer water.

Mini Cooper 2016: Rattle when cold started?

The chain drives the camshafts and provides the timing for the opening and closing of the valves. Chains are used on many engines as an alternative to belts, which need to be replaced regularly. Chains don’t need to be replaced on a regular basis, but they do wear and they can become slack and affect the valve timing, which in turn affects the engine running, and when they wear they can also rattle.
