I hate having a smeary rear window. Should I try a new blade on the new arm, or is something else going on?

A smeary rear stinks!  Sounds like the spring may be losing some of its tension. That, or, you need to pull the arm, and make sure it's pressed tightly onto the spindle. Try pulling the arm and pressing it back onto the spindle. If that doesn't take care of it, you may need a new arm.
