Hi,
Had a little search and couldn't see prev. chat on this.
Does anyone know the part code for the rear washer blade?
I bought the below blade from amazon last year and it seems to have deformed.

Bosch Wiper Blade Rear A403H, Length: 400mm – Rear Wiper Blade​

Counterfeit wiper blades is a thing, believe it or not.
Bosch Areotwin are the default choice for most of us, try another one from a reputable parts supplier.
 
I hadn’t realise counterfeit Bosch wipers was a thing.
Had just ordered first replacement triple set from
www.windscreenwipers.co.uk @ under £32

For my last van I used
www.wiperblades.co.uk
They were great, but were almost £40 this time.

I will check out on Bosch web the individual anti-counterfeit codes from the boxes before fitting. Due tomorrow ….

Thanks both for bringing this up.

Wow, no seal on the Amazon sold rear wiper box even though supplier noted as Bosch?

I’m getting confused now.
(Doesn’t take much!)

My set has just arrived and I tried scanning the QR code printed on Aerotwin carton and those on the stickers, one on each carton.

None took me to an online authenticity checker. Only links to check part numbers, with instructions in only Nederlands or Français!

More research re my Bosch link above leads to an explanation that more expensive items, like alternators, may have a hologram to check authenticity, or even a facility to scan the moulding quality etc.

Further Googling and their AI search just advised to check quality of cartons and wipers.

Cartons and wipers appear heavy and good quality. Wipers even smell ‘quality’!


Made in Serbia printed on both cartons and also on back of main wiper pair’s fixings.

Seems just have to hope ordered from reputable supplier, fit them, wait for rain and see! 🤞
