Wiper blades rainx or OEM Volkswagen
I’ve had good luck with RainX blades. Even their cheaper options are okay.
Sillicone wiper blades are always worth it. I live in Vegas and the heat will destroy rubber blades in 2 years. I've had the same Rainx wiper blades since 2016, they work fine still.
I bought for about $75 a pair of Rain-x "Silicone Advantage" wiper blades.......in 2017.
They're still working today despite being on a daily driven, stored outside GMC Sierra. I don't know *when* they'll need to be replaced again, but it sure doesn't look like any time soon.????
And they have been through at least 2 if not 3 ice storms and 103°F weather in every summer. The only damage is a knick in the top part of one where an ice scraper hit it. That's all.
Ive tried a few brands, from bosch to some other named brands. The single bar/aero bar by RainX last the longest by far and do a good job.
I bought some Rain-X wipers at Wal-Mart and had no trouble putting them on.
RainX Latitude are the best! I drive 33k miles a year and I count on them. They make the rain bead on your windshield so it's so much easier to see in rain and snow! And yes, 26 front, 16 rear.
I also lost the driver's side wiper at speed on the NJ Turnpike. The problem was a slightly bent (or misaligned) metal pin that holds the wiper blade to the arm. It was twisted slightly out of position and the wiper flew off, since the plastic cover no longer fit completely over the center of the blade. The solution was having my dealer twist the pin back into place.
Rainx is terrible, they work better than average at first but it doesn't last very long.
I just bought rainX advantage wiper blades to replace my worn out OEM blades. I got the correct lengths , but the connection piece on the rainX blades don’t fit the arms on the car. Even with the other attachment it doesn’t fit.
'15 Legacy. Manual says 17" blade on passenger side but so far every one I've tried misses part of windshield. It's the 4" in the center of the blade which is making me think the curvature isn't quite right. I'm using Rainx brand.
