fabia rear wiper arm

[Big_daddy]

Fitted mine yesterday, just in time for the crap weather. Looks good too

Just having a few issues with mines with the alignment, straight it up and tighen the nut. It either then goes abit up, once it was point towards the light.
Manged to get right but its abit of cant be asked to hold the ratchet its to cold

thing to do it work the wiper then when it is reset back to normal postion just loosen the nut and adjust!
had to do it a couple of times but jobs-a-goodun

its alot heavier then the original unit which i think helps the better wipe of the screen

 

[Teasy]

Agree....much better looking than the original, takes about 2 mins to fit & looks cool as fcuk. I just went to the skoda steeler and he knew exactly which one I needed - didnt even have to give him the part nrs I had in my pocket, about £17 i think

 

[westoncraig]

yeah mine was 17.21 in total!

 

[swissrebel]

Did mine today. £17.21 overall.

Parts guy at Skoda in Harlow says they sell hundreds of them to Leon owners. Somebody's been reading these forums lol.

 

[fezz]

I wonder is Skoda ever run any reports on what parts they sell the most of, I bet they think their rear wipers are crap as so many are sold

 

[b_wain]

still need to do mine but im too lazy to go to a skoda dealer

 

[JamesL]

yep me too to be fair I havent been having any problems with my fronts or rears, they both wipe fine! If they get worse then I'll get it done, or if I feel flush any time soon

The rear wiper on mine was literally useless, the new one, after a little tweaking, now not only wipes flawlessly - women also comment on how sexy it is, and i've won the lottery. twice.

Not saying that it's anything more than a coincidence, but... yeah, you know

 

[westoncraig]

wow you hang out with some really interesting women who find wipers sexy!

Changed mine last week, and what a difference for £17. Looks a lot better and cleans a lot better, just need to change my front ones now as they are pants. Also when the fabia wiper's blade needs changing, is it just a standard Bosch blade or would i have to order one from Skoda?

 

[swissrebel]

You honestly think any of us are cool enough to hang out with women who find wipers sexy?!

Still, odd you picked up on that, and not the multiple lottery wins

 

[westoncraig]

[westoncraig]

lol, to prove your point - I was being sarcastic too.

Or was I?!

Oh god, I think i've confused myself.

Stafford is crap ... we have no local dealers for anything. No SEAT, No Skoda ... these available online somewhere?

 

[mikeruss]

Out of interest does anyone have a piccy of the Fabia setup. Is the change just for looks or/and does it work better?
