I am trying to replace the front driver side wiper blade of 2008 Octavia. Though the passenger side wiper blade (19") came out smoothly, the driver side one (24") is not sliding out of the pin. It came out a few millimeter but stopped. Outwardly there is some difference between the two blades I did not take any risk and pushed it back. Any suggestion?

The fitments are the same for both sides, pull a little harder!

_{Maybe squirt some WD40/penetrating oil on the pin & let it soak in?  Rotate the wiper arm around the pin so it works in - you can get about 150 degrees movement around the pin}

 

_{I assume you are parking the wipers in the vertical service position & pivoting them about 90 degrees before pulling sideways?}
