Front wiper motor
« on: 16 September 2014, 18:10 »
Hey guys the front wipers on the golf have gone really slow, so having read around I'm guessing the linkage or motor is knackered. I know how to change it over but wondered if all mk4s have the same set up as I can pick one up cheap. Or are they model specific.

If anyone has part numbers that would be great too!

Cheers.

I am pretty sure the one I put in my Mk4 was exactly the same as the one I put in the A4 (B5) I had previously.

I cost 2/3 as much though. They must print that Audi logo on their spares in pure gold or something...
