this morning I went to local VW Dealership & received a new set of blades front and back. after doing a lot of driving today on roads and freeways both fast and slow in both hard rain and lighter rain\u2026the new blades, front and back are smooth as butter and very effective at sweeping away the water.
Pros: smooth as butter
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 7400 km
I haven’t had issues with mine. When I do use them, no streaking.
Pros: no streaking
Vehicle:

Exactly 12 months on my 19 S60 blades. So far still good.
Pros: still good after 12 months
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
I’ve tried Bosch Icon and other models and brands and the best blades that work are the VW OEM, which cost the same as Bosch.
Pros: best blades that work
Cons: cost the same
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
While the blades weren’t great, they were skipping across the windshield, especially in lighter rain. The tension was WAY off and after the tech adjusted it, I’ve been pretty solid the last 8 months. It works with the washer fluid or a car wash just fine.
Pros: pretty solid after adjustment, works with washer fluid
Cons: weren't great initially, skipping across windshield
Vehicle:
Volvo XC90
Replaced the blades and nothing changed. Got through one winter of ridiculous streaking and brought the issue up again with the dealer. They replaced both wipers fully under warranty and in rain the streaking is gone.
Pros: streaking is gone
Cons: ridiculous streaking
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
I’ve had the wipers replaced twice in six months and it’s downright dangerous during rainy drives.
Cons: replaced twice in six months, downright dangerous
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
This is the single biggest issue I’ve had with them. It makes driving at night in the rain a hazard. It has always smeared right across the driver’s line of sight.
Cons: biggest issue, driving hazard, smeared line of sight
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
The wipers barely clean and leave a smear. I changed blades and it's the same problem.
Cons: barely clean, leave smear
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
