Wiper Arm Length

andymatt1 · 01-28-2024, 09:02 AM

Guys
Weird one, so it seems that the windscreen was changed 3 times on my 2020 45e.

Seems on last occasion the numpty damaged the wiper arm and bent it.

Long story I decided to change it and bought a second hand wiper arm, however it’s shorter than my old one ?!?

Any insight appreciated

Could it be that the replacement you received was for a LHD (left hand drive) vehicle?
