    Question No rear wash wipe – 25-03-2020,07:14 PM
    Does anyone know why on earth Audi didnt fit a rear wiper ?

    What a bizarre thing to leave out. Did Audi ever offer it as an option or is their a retrofit kit ?

    Even my my early 1980's Ford Capri has a rear wash wipe, very useful on the occasional long journey, not that it gets driven in bad weather much. Seems daft in the A7 that to do the same I have to pull over and find a rag to wipe the rear screen.

    If you keep the speed up the rear window stays clear

    Now thats certainly true up to a point, visibility is at least good enough to see the flashes from the speed cameras

    After 9 years and 137k miles of driving I haven't noticed the need for it. Also it would spoil the nice smooth lines of the car.
