i encountered the same problem on my 2010 RX350. Due to the distance to the dealer, i opted to swap out the blades for Goodyear frameless blades. They work very well and resolved the issue for me.

I use the Glass Scrub cleaner before applying RainX. Good stuff, but it has to be applied to wet windows with something other than a paper towel and rinsed well.
Sorry you're out of warranty, rayaans. It's worth a shot to contact the dealer anyway. Sometimes they will make a repair or adjustment as a goodwill gesture. At the least, maybe they can give you an idea about what the problem might be so you can fix on your own.

My son pointed out that the left wiper (remember Im in the UK) is leaving the "curtain lace effect". I couldnt see this from the driver's side and its only when I left the car on and sat in the passenger seat that I saw it.
It appears that the Rain sensor in the UK is also on the passenger side! So.... basically the left wiper refill needs changing and because of it leaving more water on the glass on that side, the rain sensor makes the wipers wipe more frequently even though the drivers side is much cleaner and thats leading to the squeaking.
Theres no as much water on the drivers side as there is on the passenger side and therefore the drivers side wiper is going off much more than it would if both refills had deteriorated than just the passenger side one.
