On what is going to be a Scorchio day the new wiper blades are two hour out. Graham obviously has loads & loads of goodies to drop off at DG's gaff. Thumbs Up

Right, it didn't all go to plan. The Truepart ones arrived yesterday & one was faulty (metal strip not fixed in place) so emailed Steve. Ended up doing what I should have done in the first place which is get a set of Valeos, Steve sent them out that day & they arrived today, now fitted.

Absolutely first class service from Steve & AF!! When asked to let me know how to pay the difference he just replied "Don't worry". However he doesn't get off that easily so donation made to BLESMA instead. Service above & beyond. Thumbs Up Bow down Bow down

I went with the Bosch Aeros this time after many years with Valeo ...IMO they are better much wiper than Valeo or LR's own Thumbs Up 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Scotland 2011 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 HSE Auto Rimini RedDiscovery 4

I just fitted Bosch Super Plus front and rear.
Front ones need a wee bend at one end to make totally flat with the winsdcreen - in hindsight I should have went with the Aeros.
The rear Super Plus fits like a glove though, and at £4.95 was £20 cheaper than what LR were wanting for a rear.

I've had 2 or 3 sets of Valeo wipers on my D3. I thought they were fine, but rather overrated on this forum.

I'll try the Bosch Aeros when my LR OE fit ones need changing. Thumbs Up 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

I have some tru part ones waiting to go on the disco and vito. Been using them years and been very good on the Land cruiser and old d2. But you never know on parts when they are going to hit the skids on quality. D4

Some might say I'm biased but for me it's the Bosch wipers every time Whistle
