Hi all,
tried to get a set of Bosch replacement wipers for our 54 2.0 FSI but could not get them with the correct fittings. Supplier said that Bosch do not do them for the A3 but this seems very strange to me. He did say that he could get 'Valeo' which he thought were better ( more expensive though!) I have never heard of them so any advice or experience you good people may have would be great.
Thanks.
Roger

I had a set of Valeo blades on my VW passat these are serious quality blades, I was recommended to them by a friend.
I don't think you will be disappointed!
If you do get them let me know how much you paid please.
It does seem strange that Bosch do not have them?
I hope this helps? :D

Valeo are fine, they are another major supplier to the auto industry, just like Bosch, Delphi, etc.

I got mine from wiperblades.co.uk, they were cheap at the time.

Valeo are here (cheaper than the Bosch):
