    What aero wiper arms fit the Leon?

    As it say's above. I wandered if the Golf mark IV arms would fit or Fabia or even the A3. Also has anyone fitted them yet? Ive got the aero blades but want the proper arms and blades to fit. Thanks ahead.

    Rear Wiper engaging with Reverse gear

    My Leon has suddenly started wagging its tail (rear wiper) when I engage reverse. It never used to do that, and though in the rain it's probably a good idea, it's a bit pointless most of the time! How do I switch it off and how did I switch it on? The car is an 08 Stylance with DSG. Cheers...

    Fabia rear wiper OR Leon Rear Aero?

    Wiper clunk

    My wipers have just started clunking nearly every time they park (ie when you turn them completely off and they tuck themselves away) - they seem to make a very audible clunk as if they're belting off the inner lip. Doesn't happen every time but certainly almost every time. Only started...
