Which Wipers?

[Chan110]

Skoda wants £42 for pair of front wipers!

Where do everyone get their wipers?

And which ones looks the most similar to the Skoda ones?

(Or better)!

I got a pair of new Bosch windscreen wipers on Ebay for my twindoor, sure they only came to £25 for the pair of them.

Make?

[renzema]

Amazon, bought individually. For some reason, the kit was more expensive.

Halfords own brand. Bosch was only reduced to about £7. Get a massive reduction on bulbs too. If you know anyone with a trade card they're worth asking to get a price. Just been asked tonight to get some for my mates Toyota corolla as he knows how cheap I can get them.

Not pushing euro car parts, but I should have also added that the current CHILL30 discount gets you 30% off

Also look at carparts4less. Same guys that used to work for / set-up ECP I think. Sometimes cheaper than ECP post-discount, and still come in ECP packaging.

I have valeo aero wipers at the moment, and about to switch back to Bosch, as they were a few £ cheaper.

I get Valeo ones from ECP using whatever discount code is valid at the time - BRISK25 for example!

[Chan110]

BRISK25 didnt work for me last time :-(

If they're already discounted then might not take BRISK25. Try a random set of letters, like UKPAS25, something like that?

Lol

Do I have more chance with a ECP random number than

winning the lottery?

[cobreti]

Anyone buy from rexbo.eu? Think they're Germanbased

Do Halfords sell any decent aero wipers for the Superb II then? I might see what they're like with trade discount.

The biggest problem I've found with Aero wipers is when its cold they seem to set solid in the last position they are on the screen causing them to judder when being used until they've warmed up, I've tired all sorts of wiper blades from Bosch to cheapies and the only ones that I found that set don't solid when frozen are Valeo Silenco, set Vm442, about £20 a set.

[JakeBlade]

I've had some juddering with my Silencio, but they are coming to the end of their 1-yr tenor. I have used the cheap rain-x spray in this cold weather to help stop the build up of frost on the front screen and side windows: the glass still needs a scrape when frosty, but so much easier to scrape than if I had no rain-x on.

Does rain-x leave an extra film on the glass - so u have to scrape that too?

I remember using glass cleaner on the inside,

When it was really really frosty -

I swear i had to scrape a millimetre of frost from the inside of the windscreen!!!

[JakeBlade]

It does leave a water-repellent film on the glass, but is resilient to last a couple of weeks of scraping in this weather. In the rain, above about 50mph, you rarely need to use the wipers at all. I use on the side windows as well - very good visibility in the pouring rain. Not for use where you have heating elements though.

Hi, I use http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/ but the Swedish version of course ... ;-)

 

To me it look like the wiper blades at http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/wiper-blades/skoda-superb-estate-3t5-1-8-tsi-160hp_v32784_g298.html are priced pretty good, I replaced mine almost immediately when I received my car, it's a habbit I have with new cars ... ;-)
