Wiper blades VALEO or OEM BMW
Valeo Ultimate 20/24TB are the same as the OE blades, no adapters required. I've always bought Icons for other vehicles but these are a better choice for the VW IMO.
Pros: no adapters required, better choice
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Valeo titanium wipers are pretty decent and not too expensive.
Pros: pretty decent, not too expensive
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
I get mine from TireRack.com - the Valeo Ultimate Beams are almost identicle to the OEM wipers and work great
Pros: work great
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Then, I'd recommend swapping your blades over to these from Valeo: Pay no attention to the Amazon listing for size/compatibility - VM387 is specifically for Golf MK7 models. I went through multiple types and brands of wiper blades years ago trying to solve chattering/skipping issues and these have proven to be the best quality, smoothest, and longest lasting by far.
Pros: best quality, smoothest
Cons: chattering, skipping issues
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Part number: VM387
OEM BMW are the best replacement wipers you can buy.
Pros: best replacement wipers
Vehicle:
BMW
I've been buying Valeo blades from rockauto for awhile...they seem to last
Pros: seem to last
As for the wipers, i got Valeo from RockAuto for all 3 and they work great a year later still.
Pros: work great, last a year
Thanks for sharing this info, OP. I went with Valeos for my last change. Good blade, but I've been unhappy with the bright white logo at the corner. Looks like the Otto logo is more subdued.
Pros: good blade
Cons: bright white logo
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
This came off the passenger side of my car. The wiper is made by Valeo, a huge yurrupean car part supplier. The replacement blade I bought wasn't curved.
Cons: curved, not straight
I got new wipers for the BMW. I paid a little over $100. BMW wanted to charge me $50 and told me it was a complex process. I said no, walked out and put them on in literally 1 minute.
Pros: easy to install
Cons: expensive, complex process
Vehicle:
BMW
