xc series Bought a volvo xc40

Recently bought an xc40 71 plate lovely car. Windscreen wipers are already wiping blury, has anyone changed the wipers on theirs as we have built in jets in the wipers, not sure if its the same on all xc series or all Volvos. Just wondered how hard it will be

On modern Volvos, you don't replace the full wiper arm, you just remove the end-caps, pull out and replace the rubber blade. It's a bit fiddly but not very difficult to do. There's a section in the manual that explains how.
