Title: Wiper Blades
Post by: Optimus prime on 29 June 2015, 22:49
Car is 9 months old & wipers are shot already !  Not keen on replacing again with original as I think the quality is naff.

Any recommendations for good alternatives for front only?

Try using the search function as we have a massive amount of complaints about the original wipers from when the mk7 gti and gtd first came out.

Replaced mine yesterday after about 18 months since new.

Passenger side was shot and driver's side making lots of noise.

From BW45 '14 new design wiper blades were fitted. Mine are pretty damn good with no smearing or juddering problems.
