Switching to single beam wipers helped from the crappy oem segmented frame ones.
You pretty much have to have your heat and fan set to max on your windshield with your wipers going constantly. That’s how I managed to keep my wipers from freezing up in a winter storm. And this was with a Volkswagen Jetta.
Second they said that she needed a new rear window wiper blade. The cost for this? $67 or so. I bought a new one at the local auto parts store for $10.85. A 13mm wrench and 10min later and that was on.
living in fl, I've tried them all, oem VW blades from the parts dept are the best.
The oem lasts longer and fits perfectly so I’m ok with the price. Same for front blades.
OEM VW wipers are the best choice IMO. They might be a bit spendy but they last a long time and fit perfectly.
3 years huh? I think I have my factory-original wipers on a 16 year old Subaru. Might be different environments and usage patterns but isn't this the sort of thing you don't replace if they're still working perfectly?
12,000 miles, 9 months on my 2023 ID.4. The factory wipers are definitely done. That's not awful, but definitely not great considering I live in Colorado and we had a pretty dry summer.
But Mercedes and volkswagen have a special place in hell for proprietary fucking wiper blades… i mean come on
Also replaced the wipers because the ones that come with the car suck.
