Replacement wiper blades

[Project_79]

Bosch Aerotwin every time. I buy them for all all our cars and the last couple of times from wiperblades co.uk. There are cheaper wipers out there but they’re also one of those things that it’s just not worth skimping on.

Same here. Wife thought I was mental until I did the same to her X-trail. Then she saw the light (and no smudges on the windscreen )

I bought the Bosch also, on eurocarparts was in no rush so took the free 5 day delivery option. 2 hours later van turns up with them - not bad for £26. Beat that Amazon prime !

Just taken delivery from windscreen wipers direct. Front bosch kit is A351S and rears (barn doors) 2 x A450H.

Removing the rears you have to slide the end bit along and the wiper will lift off the spindle within the wiper arm.

Hi all, just wondering what people recommend for wiper blades and are they the same for a T6.1 as a T6? Thanks in advance.

 

[LondonLad]

Don’t know if they are same for T6 but this is what I got for my T6.1 based on feedback from the forum…
Bosch Aerotwin Flat Wiper
Blade Set A351S cost about £30

I’d say they offer better water wiping but not as good at getting rid of stubborn flies etc.

Would it need an adapter to fit in for T 6.1? My wiper arms have a square feet at the end and not sure if I need adapters or not? Thanks

@Marcell Just go to a site like Wiper Blades Ltd. | Suppliers of Quality Windscreen Wiper Blades.
and put in your registration number or van details. That should tell you exactly what's needed.

Sort of related..... every six months or so I thoroughly clean my winscreen then decontaminate with iron fallout remover, then clay bar the screen. It makes the wiper action much smoother and I guess it helps to extend the life of the wiper blades. It's quick, easy and cheap to do.
Last week I did this with the T6 and my wife's car while she was busy. A few days later she asked me if I'd fitted new wiper blades as she said they were much quieter!

Thanks everyone, I've ordered a set

My only concern doing this is that the chemical fall out remover will get washed down into the channels, vents and drains below the windscreen and who knows when it will be washed through.

I use 0000 grade wire wool after a good wash so I’m not rubbing fine grit / road grime around with the wool!

I give it a good rinse off with the hose pipe when it's done it's work, so all of that gets a good rinse too.
