When I set my wipers on intermitant, they will swipe to the drivers side, but on the way back down they jusdder and stop part way down. If I push the stalk down (single swipe) it does the same thing.
If I hold the stalk in the single swipe it will smoothly make the wipers go to the bottom of the windscreen again.
Any ideas?

I have the same problem - think it's down do a mucky wiper motor. If you look in the articles section there are instructions on how to remove and clean it - I haven't had time as yet 
I think this is the right answer??

I had the same problem, followed the directions in the tech section (as linked above) and all was sorted!
Quite an easy job and shouldnt cost anything to do.
