RE: Windscreen Wiper Blades

[revivor]

Glad to help. I got quoted $25/ea for the Bosch at a local store but stock is always none.

Finally received my wipers 3 days ago (Total 2wks). Installed it yesterday and tested in the rain, now wiping is perfect...no noise and clean wipe every time. Been delaying this for 6mths and now I just need to top up my windscreen additive to be more efficient.

Just one question ope126, where did you get the VW windscreen additive from? Dealer? How much did you get it for? I also find that the VW additive does the job quite good since having topped up at service.

About $10 at the dealers for a 1L bottle. Just quote the part number above.

So a couple of years after the original post and here is some additional info;

Replaced all three wipers today and the part numbers are as follows;
- 3C2955426D
- 3C2955425D
- 3C9955425 (Rear)

Turns out that the OEM wipers are Valeo SWF Aero Blades.

And the Tridon ones that are stocked at Supercheap / Bursons are also Valeo, but not the SWF series.

Thanks for the update... If mine's repaired, it's going to need new blades...
