Has anyone tried to change the wiper blades for the 8 y yet. Seem to be a different fitting and no one seems to stock them
When I looked I couldn’t find any on the Bosch website, they take a fair while to update for some reason.Has anyone tried to change the wiper blades for the 8 y yet. Seem to be a different fitting and no one seems to stock them
Try Tom @creweaudipartsHas anyone tried to change the wiper blades for the 8 y yet. Seem to be a different fitting and no one seems to stock them
Has anyone changed out their wiper blades yet? None of the Valeo/Bosch websites have a listing for the s3 yet.
What is better ?.Thanks guys but trying to go with Bosch or valeo ones, better than the genuine Audi ones imo
Bosch or Valeo wiper blades are better than the genuine Audi ones imo. Having used both on previous cars over the last 10 years they’ve always out performed the genuine manufacturer ones and they usually cost less too.What is better ?.
Used my S3 in the rain for the first time and the wipers are jumping so badly they were hitting the side trim. I assumed it was the Gardex treatment not been cleaned off probably by the dealer. I've polished the glass thoroughly so fingers crossed it improves with screen wash use and glass polishes.did you find alternative blades for you s3. Mine are jumping all over the place. Ive clayed, used vinegar, polished, the oem blades must be the issue!
Omg....just replaced with Bosch A985s as now in market and immediatley the problem fixed!!!. Poor show from audi though, how hard can it be to replicate bosch and make a decent set of blades. Looking forward to driving in the rain nowdid you find alternative blades for you s3. Mine are jumping all over the place. Ive clayed, used vinegar, polished, the oem blades must be the issue!
This weekend I used glass polish on the rear screen and finished off with glass cleaner, the thing was super clean.Buy some surgical spirit from your local pharmacy or Isopropyl alcohol off amazon give you glass a good clean dry it and apply the surgical spirit or alcohol wiping thr rear glass clean with ideally a glass cloth or microfibre cloth. For good measure wash the blades with fairy/washing up liquid using warm water and an old soft toothbrush wipe dry and wipe down with alcohol / surgical spirit.
LET ME KNOW HOW YOU GET ON?
I had the same issue with my works pool car - Seat LeonThis weekend I used glass polish on the rear screen and finished off with glass cleaner, the thing was super clean.
I took the blade off and washed it in warm water and removed any dirt with rubbing alcohol but it still screeches across the screen.
It's due for a service in the next week, I'll ask them to replace the wiper but if this next one does it I might as well buy a Bosch blade and see if that helps.
Hi, were these the right blades???Bosch A332H appears to be the correct fit for the rear. Ordered one will confirm once it arrives, only £7 on Amazon.
