Wiper blades rainx or Trico
I love rainx wipers
I got RainX wipers at Princess Auto. Great blades and well priced. The Costco Michelin ones are garbage
Did the same on mine and no issues. Used a wiper blade from RainX to match the front's Silicone Enduras
So I swapped in some Trico Ultras also from RockAuto and my initial perception of them is that they're a big improvement.
I live in New England and use Rain-X Weatherbeater blades(16",13",13"). This current set has been on for over a year and still going strong.
I got Trico heavy duty from Rockauto last week and so far very satisfied
I've tried 3 brands of aftermarket wiper blades that claimed to fit the rear wiper of the ID4 and none did.
One was a Trico I bought from Amazon and when I requested a return in the app, Amazon refunded it and told me to keep it. I just cut off the plastic chunk at the end that prevented it from fitting and made it work (it stays in place but fits "sloppy".)
It rained today and I noticed the blades only make contact with 1/2 the windshield. They are Rain-X Latitude so you can avoid them. The windshield just has too much curve for the blade.
Tried Trico once. A single snow storm later and they were toast
Their wiper blades suck to in my experience.
