Bosch don't do a direct replacement set just yet, but its coming soon though. They currently offer the A864s set which are 650/450mm and come with a single adaptor to fit direct. Some users have fitted them and are perfectly happy.

For a correct size replacement, Bosch offer the individual AP28U (700mm) and the AP18U (450mm). These both come with the usual universal adaptors which you have to use on to connect with the Enyaqs arms.

Ach I guess I'll have to hold out for direct replacement parts hopefully the make an appearance sooner than software update !!

Yeah both due to be launched around the same time, lets see whos first, Bosch or VAG !

Dear Mr S.,

Thank you for your message.

The wiper blade set for the Skoda Enyaq is expected to be available in the second quarter of 2022.


Alternatively, you can also use our Aerotwin single wiper program.
Then please use the wipers AP 700 U / AP 450 U with retaining spring 4.

My fronts have always been noisy and drivers side (right) sometimes makes a tap sound like it’s hitting something when on full sweep . Also I notice when on auto they rest a little high up then drop down before the normal sweep ? Anyone else had this ?

Yeah min sit high when on Auto and drop down before a sweep or when the car is turned off.

They also smear and chatter often cheap factory crap, once direct replacement are available I'll be swapping them out.

Seems silly surly a aerodynamic issue when raised

We were quite impressed by our wipers. Maybe just an alignment issue?

[BioHzrd]

I don't think it's either of those issues it has been the same on both my brand new Karoq and now the Enyaq swapping them out for Bosch parts cures both issues.
