What is the length of this wiper blade?

Is this wiper blade suitable for right-hand drive vehicles?

How often should I replace my wiper blades?

Wiper blades typically should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if they show signs of wear such as streaking, skipping, or noise.

How do I clean the wiper blade?

You can clean the rubber edge of the wiper blade by gently wiping it with a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild glass cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What is the difference between a flat wiper blade and a conventional one?

Flat wiper blades have an integrated tension spring bar that offers a more uniform wiping pressure across the entire blade, reducing wind lift and noise compared to conventional, frame-style blades.

Where can I find cross-reference part numbers?

The product information lists cross-references with manufacturers like Bosch, Champion, and Valeo. You may also find these details through online parts catalogs or by contacting customer support.

Troubleshooting

Wiper blade leaves streaks or skips.

Clean the rubber edge of the blade with a damp cloth. Ensure the blade is properly seated on the wiper arm. Check for any damage to the rubber edge. If streaking persists, the blade may need replacement.

Wiper blade chatters or makes noise.

Clean the windscreen and the wiper blade. Ensure the wiper arm tension is adequate. The aerodynamic design of the flat blade should minimize noise; persistent noise may indicate wear or improper fit.

Wiper blade does not fit the wiper arm.

Double-check the compatibility for your specific vehicle model and year. Ensure the correct connection type is being used for installation. Refer to the installation instructions.

Wiper blade falls off during operation.

Ensure the blade is fully locked onto the wiper arm. Reinstall the blade, making sure it clicks securely into place. Verify that the wiper arm is not damaged.
