I'm getting confused info on replacing my juddering driver side wiper blade. I want to use a Bosch AP24U (24")but some suppliers suggest it wont fit and some say I need a 26" wiper. Any thoughts on appropriatness of the AP24U?

The drivers side is 650mm (26") , the passenger side 450mm (18"). Just get the Bosch twin pack A864S https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bosch-A864S-Aerotwin-Wiperblade-Set/dp/B00W1KKYUI

and have done with it!. I tolerated the original wiper blades on my car for a whole two weeks of juddering before replacing with the Bosch ones...

Agree with Nottslan

Thanks for that however my drivers side wiper is 24" (610mm) and a 650mm would foul the passenger side wiper as there is no apparent allowance for overlap. I'm surprised at how many suppliers get the lengths wrong so im going to risk getting a Bosch AP24U. Surprisingly Bosch website list only one Skoda model (SUPERB) being suitable for their wipers. I would welcome any other thoughts.

The Bosch site does list the Karoq and the correct 650/450 wipers.

See screenshot

I stand corrected on that Nottslan but I remain puzzled as my drivers side wiper measures 24" ( ive double checked) not 26". I'll  refer it to my local Skoda dealer though I don't hold out much hope of a plausible explanation.

I searched on line and, in EUROCARPARTS website my registration number came up as a Karoq 2014 ??? Which suggested a 26" blade. I tried again by selecting the car manually and the suggestion was a 24" AP24U.  I really can't explain that.

Thanks for your interest in this issue and prompt response.

Very strange , the Karoq was only launched in 2017. 

That's what confused me. Attached screenshot of car my registration number produced.

Does this clarify my confusion?

ECP's web search by reg number is notoriously bad. Visit in branch or phone them and chat to a human, they have better data available on their screens.
