I buy Bosch with an adapter and have no problems.
Best Wiper blades for Volkswagen Jetta
Following: same issue here... 2023 Jetta Sport AT. I'm using Bosh Icon blades... these work really well on all other cars.
I bought 2 Bosch wipers for a 21' Jetta, the wipers don't fit properly. Edit: get Bosch icon oe 24/20 they fit right in with number 4.
I have these on my car. By far the superior wiper blade on the market, from my experience. Tried silicone blades and was disappointed (noise, streaks). I do remember the connector you need to use was tight, but it did work. These blades are fantastic, but only last 8 months. I think I can live with that.
Valeo Ultimate 20/24TB are the same as the OE blades, no adapters required. I've always bought Icons for other vehicles but these are a better choice for the VW IMO.
I get mine from TireRack.com - the Valeo Ultimate Beams are almost identicle to the OEM wipers and work great
Completed that mission. Big improvement on wiper placement. No more downward movement from resting position. Only issue I had is with the measurements \"between tips of wiper lips and upper edge of plenum chamber cover\". Manual says 17.5.on right side and 10mm on left. I have standard size wiper blades (22' & 19\"). I didn't make this measurement but know by looking at it, it's larger than 17.5mm If I were to lower the blade any further, the tip of the blade would rub against the right side cowl lip. These are 22\" bosch blades. Maybe the OEM VW blades are a little shorter and would allow a slightly lower placement. I'm satisfied with the turn out. Much better that what it was.
From what I can tell, OEM is no longer Bosch, but Valeo, and the dealer is usually cheaper than finding the Valeos (they run about $25-30ea. New Jettas are teh same as the current audi A4... slightly narrower than the bosch 19OE and 24OE sizes.
Do NOT get the Michelins at Costco. Worse blades EVER. Don't wipe at all and noisy.
I don't care for the Bosch Icons that most people like. Have had nothing but trouble with them.
