Wiper blades Goodyear or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
You pretty much have to have your heat and fan set to max on your windshield with your wipers going constantly. That’s how I managed to keep my wipers from freezing up in a winter storm. And this was with a Volkswagen Jetta.
Pros: wipers not freezing
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Second they said that she needed a new rear window wiper blade. The cost for this? $67 or so. I bought a new one at the local auto parts store for $10.85. A 13mm wrench and 10min later and that was on.
Pros: easy to install, inexpensive
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
living in fl, I've tried them all, oem VW blades from the parts dept are the best.
Pros: are the best
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The oem lasts longer and fits perfectly so I’m ok with the price. Same for front blades.
Pros: lasts longer, fits perfectly
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
OEM VW wipers are the best choice IMO. They might be a bit spendy but they last a long time and fit perfectly.
Pros: last long, perfect fit
Cons: a bit spendy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
12,000 miles, 9 months on my 2023 ID.4. The factory wipers are definitely done. That's not awful, but definitely not great considering I live in Colorado and we had a pretty dry summer.
Pros: lasted 9 months
Cons: definitely done, not great
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 19312 km
Beam blades are quite good, the Goodyear/similar don't chatter, but they have a rather annoying *THWUP* as the upstroke changes to downstroke for the nanosecond they're vertical...
Pros: don't chatter
Cons: annoying THWUP sound
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
But Mercedes and volkswagen have a special place in hell for proprietary fucking wiper blades… i mean come on
Cons: proprietary wiper blades
Also replaced the wipers because the ones that come with the car suck.
Cons: OEM wipers suck
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I hate the Goodyear wiper blades they sell. I now buy PIAA off Amazon and they last a long time!
Pros: last a long time
Cons: I hate
