Frequently Asked Questions

How do you know when to change your wiper blades?

Over time the rubber on wiper blades can become brittle, crack, separate and wear out. Worn out wipers clean the windshield poorly leading to poor visibility and unsafe driving conditions.

If your windshield wipers leave streaks and/or are noticeably falling apart it is time to replace them.

How do I know what size wiper blades are on my Volkswagen Golf?

There are a number of ways to check or confirm your wiper blade size:

  1. Check our wiper blade size charts here at AutoPadre.com.
  2. Check the vehicles owners manual
  3. Measure the current wipers with a measuring tape

Are windshield wipers one-size-fits-all?

Windshield wipers are not one size fits all. Manufacturers recommend wiper sizes that will provide the greatest range of visibility for that particular model.
