Wiper blades Bosch or MICHELIN
The OEM wipers were never very good, but the bosch are noticeably better.
Have done the ABS sensors for $14 myself. Brembo rotors and Akebono pads front and back $$245, flush brake lines for $40 and Bosch Icons $23, OEM sparks $20 and the long pliers for the spark plug job $18 (jobs were not at the same time and that is a factor if all was needed immediately).
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.
Aerotwin wipers for the GLB 35 perform better than the OEM wipers. They work just as well and the connector looks nicer. I like them better than the OEMs due to better performance.
Changed to Bosch and it’s night and day.
I just can’t believe how bad they are in comparison to the Bosch blades I swapped them for.
Bosch Icons are next best.
the current batch of ICONs suck I guess... I had put a set of ICONs on my MKIII and they worked wonders, all my friends have them on all their cars and they all work great.
I personally have had bad luck with Bosch (streaks) on my Subaru and went back to OEM.
Got Michelin wipers from Costco, seemed good deal but performed poorly out of the box.
