Thanks I'll have a look. Decided to take it to an independent garage. Main dealership either clueless or all in collusion. Whenever I see a smart new dealership showroom all I think of is, if they can't sustain it via sales then it must be via services.

Not sure to be honest. I have not checked the bag status. Is it easily visible? Can it be changed or the whole tank needs changing?

Hi rifelman Did your coolant contamination issue ever get sorted by skoda? At the moment it is bleeding me 700£ each trip,possibly monthly with no known cause or permanent fix. Kind regards, Dan

Maybe your wiper arm connector is 19mm. For some reason the A860S just would not fit, as in it wouldn't even go in the first couple of mm's. It's possible I got a faulty pair from Amazon but odds are high. Lucky you

Which set? Bosch A860S??

I suspect the A860S didn't fit my octy mk3 because mine wiper arm attachment is 16mm not 19mm.

I bought the bosch A860s and returned them as they didn't fit (from Amazon). In the end I bought the THE BOSCH APU24 (front) and AP18U (rear) and used the 16mm number 4 adapter. The adapter is the only one with the squarish clip at the bottom of the adaptor. The skoda eshop does not have the octavia mk3 wiper blades and I guess if they did, theyd be the swf version anyway which are not great. I also ordered a heiner set of three from ebay which for 20£ didn't seem bad for set of three but I suspect not as good as bosch. Retailers need to update their database with the bosch compatible octavia mk3 wiper blades and the only retailer to provide that option was euro car parts. Thanks eveyone for all the input and help. Regards, Dan

Ok thanks guys (pistonbr0ke and John Rowley) really appreciate your time and posts. Regards, Dan

I don't think the these look like they will fit. I looked at my wiper Arms and they say SWF on them. Is it easy to change the whole wiper assembly from swf to bosch??

Has any one found wiper blades for an octavia estate 2016. It's a joke I can't find any after market blades. Nothing seems to fit. Dan
