Fabia rear wiper OR Leon Rear Aero?

[SirSuraj]

Was about to get myself a Fabia rear wiper, but then stumbled across the Leon aero rear wiper, and was wondering whether many people have the Leon aero?

From the pics I'm tempted to go for the leon aero, looks a little slimmer. But then being shorter, will I have an issue with blades?

Cheers

i prefer the fabia

 

[westoncraig]

yeaah i have the fabia..much better

 

[SirSuraj]

Have you guys seen a leon aero in the flesh?

Dont you find the fabia one a little on the chunky side?

 

[andycupra]

ive got the fabia and i agree with you its very chunky.
Aero wiper looks good also.

 

[paullec]

chunkies try harder lol But i think the thicker look suit the leon big bum. Saying that i havent seen the aero in the flesh

I had the aero one for a while but found that it juddered abit. I changed to the Fabia one and found much better results!

 

[SirSuraj]

Hmmmm, I hate making decisions!

What about the mark 4 golf wiper?

What they call Leon rear aero wiper and what you call the mark 4 golf wiper, what's the difference?

I've an aero wiper set from a Touran. Wipes wide and no squealing or juddering.

ive had two fabia wipers, both were good but developed juddering after a while.
Im sure thats more to do with the age of the spring / wiper blade.

I got one a few weeks ago from vag-parts. Alot better than the crappy standard one. Though i had to use a belt sander to take a bit off the plastic bolt cover as it kept popping open when i used it

No-one had replied to my problems here, but I had issues with the Aero (Touran) rear wiper:

I've never had issues with aero wipers (Polo/Touran).
I used cap 6Q6 955 435 A or 6Q6 955 435 B.

Only "issues" I had, was the length of the different arms and which one to choose.

The one fitted (perfectly) in the pic, is the Touran one.

golf mk5/touran/polo wiper is the one for me

Anyone know the cost of these wipers at the moment.

Fabia kit is on ebay for 22.99 buy it now. Seems close to stealers price i reckon.

 

[brad1]

dealer price for fabia one is only £17 quid
dealer price from vw for my mk5 wiper, £21 all in,
delears aint that much more expensive, sometimes cheaper, for example, leon cupra r splitter, delears price £17, on ebay people are selling for £30 and people are buying, whats going on

Polo on top, Fabia estate in the middle, Touran at the bottom.

What cap are you talking about? For which wiper?

 

[LEE69]

For the middle one or do i just use the original one?

 

[brad1]

fabia one should come with one built on
