    Couldn't find a related thread so have to open a new one. I need to change my wiper blades on my A4. After doing a bit of research I believe the below to be the best option.

    Bosch A298S Aerotwin Wiper Blade (I'm not permitted to post a URL here)

    Anybody have any experience of these?

    Are they compatible with my vehicle?

    Thanks

    Most motor factors will stock them - they'll have a book showing what ones will fit. I've gotten aerotwin blades in the past and they haven't performed as I would have liked and didn't last either. I've never had that problem with valeo blades.

    Buy them from Audi. Nothing else lasts in my experience.

    They are usually Valeo (audi branded) i use www.micksgarage.ie or www.wiperblades.co.uk use both whatever is cheapest at the time.

    Have found the Aero Twin seem to last abit longer without a compromise in performence on a 08 Leon

    The bosch are great from my experience of that exact part number on Audi A5.
    Indeed I only changed them because they started to get ever so slightly loose as they change direction on the screen after 2 years.
    Be warned - Dont buy them off mister auto.ie as they will send you A297S which is for left hand drive cars.

    You can buy the rubber inserts from Audi now,saves on costs of a whole blade.
