Octavia III Estate Rear Wiper Adjustment

Followers

10 December, 201411 yr

Hi All,

I've had my Octavia Estate since last week and the rear wiper sweep is appalling. The arm appears to 'squash' the wider blade meaning that half of it doesn't touch the window when it operates. Has anyone experienced this and is there an easy fix or is it a trip back to the dealer?

Thanks!

I had that on my Focus and ended up replacing the blade with one of those retro-fit flat blade types (http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/bosch-aerotwin-ar15u-wiper-blade/ ) and the problem went away. Shouldn't happen on a brand new car & blade though!

Take it straight back to the dealer. They didnt perform the PDI very well!

You could bring it round to mine when the weather is a tad more clement and we can compare like for like, or not as the case may be!

Failing that I'd take it back.

Who was the dealer?

The Elroq was only released in October in AU and we bought the first one from the dealer after driving a pre release vehicle back in July Wife's new Elroq 130 2 weeks old has an "interesting problem" Love the car but the Au importers appear to have stripped out some feature to maybe save a few $$(Of course not, would they?) We have a 13kw solar array currently and 20kw battery bank about to be installed however currently using the supplied 2.4kw wall charger 240VAC @10A The problem: We have be

Superb sportline

Hi everyone, I’ve got a 2021 Superb S EL. Fantastic car, very comfortable. I’m thinking of ordering a new Superb Sportline. Has anyone driven both these trims and can tell me how to compare for comfort ? I recently tried an Octavia Sportline and it was too firm for me. Every bump was felt in contrast to my Superb. I’m hoping the Superb Sportline will be ok with the DCC in comfort mode but it does have large wheels. I realise I should really get another S EL but the Sportline looks nicer in
