I’ve had a search of the forum, but can’t find any threads regarding replacement front wiper blades.

As my front blades are due a change, I was wondering if anyone has fitted a Bosch aerotwin blade set and, if so, what part number/code did you use, and did it have the correct fitting, same as the Porsche blades?

Yes, I've replaced mine with Bosch Aerotwin blades. You can get the pair as a pack for about £25, part number A298S, and they're easy to fit.

That seems very early for a wiper change?

Yeah, my last Macan wipers lasted about two years. The current ones are ok, but do occasionally judder, especially during light rain, so I might just change them. I moved very close to the sea just before buying my current car, so I’m wondering if the salt air has had an effect on the blades? 🤔

I change mine every year usually because there's a nick in one and the trail it leaves annoys me. It's £20 and a 2 minute job.
