Wiper blades OEM Mazda or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
Buy new ones. I replace mine about twice a year.
Pros: replace twice a year
Use iso alcohol on a microfiber towel, wipe the windscreen/back window and the wiper blades with it, then take off the excess and dry with another one.
Then use a glass cleaner+fresh microfiber to clean the windscreen, and wipe the wiper blades(all 3).
Pros: clean windscreen, clean blades
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
I have started buying my wipers from the dealership. Fist they are actually cheaper then most of the brands at the corner car store. Secondly, they work great. My Mazda6 blades are simply the best.
Pros: cheaper, work great, best performance
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
the value blade are pretty good blades for the price. I replace mine 2x a year. Thats not bad for $15 blades.
Pros: good for price, reasonable lifespan

I've had my 2019 S since May, 2018. The original wipers wiped OK, but began to get noisy a few months ago. We just went into the rain season here, so I replaced them with new from a VW dealer in San Antonio TX. The new ones are dead silent and wipe cleanly and completely.
Pros: dead silent, wipe cleanly
Cons: original wipers noisy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Another thing you might notice on your Tig is that every once in a while when you switch your car off or turn it on, the wipers will "twitch", basically just move a couple of millimeters up or down. It's to prevent them from sticking to the glass and baking on, in areas where you might not use your wipers for weeks of months at a time. It supposedly keeps the blade's edge in healthier shape.
Pros: keeps blade's edge healthy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
My stock ones clean well, but they squeak like none other.
Pros: clean well
Cons: squeak loudly
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
driving on the highway on my CX-30 during a very sudden and heavy storm at night was a pretty scary experience for me. The whole time I was wondering - is everyone else seeing that little?
Cons: scary experience, poor visibility
Vehicle:
Mazda
I just bought my 2024 and experienced my first heavy rain. It was difficult. I also noticed the wiper high speed wasn't nearly as fast as my previous cars. We get semi- frequent heavy rainstorms here, so it does bother me.
Cons: wiper speed not fast enough, difficult in rain
Vehicle:
Mazda
I bought a 2024 CX-30 in April and just got caught in my first heavy rainstorm. I can't believe how slow the wiper speed is at its highest setting compared to all my prior vehicles. I was able to find this is an issue for others elsewhere online but nothing about it here, and no real solutions but it's terrifying to me. I had to pull over at a gas station.
Cons: slow wiper speed, terrifying experience

Mazda
