Wiper Blades Replacment

Mine were a little noisy when we first took delivery. I found that a really thorough windscreen and wiper clean improved matters tremendously-nothing to complain about now. I concluded that even a small amount of splatter from the bodywork protective stuff was responsible for the problem.

Yes - I found that too. Definitely some wax or polish wax on the glass. After a few washes and cleans with Fast Glass it’s way better now.
The driver’s side wiper does tend to fling droplets onto the passenger side though which could be better but it doesn’t really matter.

The ‘bodywork protective stuff’ was a Diamondbright product. Trouble was it is, I think, a resin based product that is completely transparent when set. Memory suggests that I had to resort to strong solvents to get it all off the screen-great care taken to avoid getting any on bonnet etc. I restored the surface of the screen with RainX.

Bosch wiper blades for Enyaq- I can definitely confirm, as of 30 minutes ago, that the Bosch AP AP28U (700mm) and the AP18U (450mm) are a perfect fit. Just select the appropriate mounting clip from the selection and away you go. I suspect the car simply needs adding to compatibility lists at retailers..

Safe and clear driving everyone!

What Bosch don’t have yet is a combined set with both in one box for less money than buying individual blades.

Have just gotten round to replacing my factory fitted ones with Bosch AP28U and AP18U, but now notice a tapping from the smaller blade during its travel back down! Does anyone else have this?? Sounds like it's catching something...
