Windscreen Wipers

[nigelcro]

Hi Folks,

Apologies, this is really trivial, but annoying.

Having spent 8 hours on the road yesterday in dry>drizzle>rain conditions I was getting thoroughly annoyed with the wipers on the van. They judder and shudder as they drag across the screen and thump when they change direction, particularly when it is drizzle and not real English rain.

The blades are in perfect condition.

I am going to try and replace the existing blades with something that is softer and more flexible, I have used Bosch before without any problems.

Do you guys have any suggestions?

Bosch A351s Aerotwin wipers. £26 on the amazon, great wipers, give your windscreen a really good clean first. 600mm x2

Bosch aerotwin, but get them from a reputable retailer. Too many counterfeit items on some corners of the Internet.

Snyde windscreen wipers? Wow I’ve heard it all now

Give your windscreen a really good clean - that should help with the judder. Then new wipers as advised above. A wiper may look ok, but they do wear and collect a lot of tiny bits.

As above.

Clean the screen with glass cleaner,

And.

Fit a new genuine set of Bosch blades.

Also.make sure you have a good mix of screen wash for winter.

Fake blades are defo a thing, stay away from cheap eBay cack.....stick with euro cp etc etc.

Get yourself some Glaco. Won't need wipers above 45mph. But if you do use them, it's Bosch twin aero here as well.
