2 Answers
The method for replacing the wiper blade rubber on a Lavida car is as follows: 1. Turn the Lavida key to the power-on position, quickly move the wiper lever once to make the wipers stay in the raised position; 2. Locate a small square button on the wiper arm; 3. Press the wiper button and remove the protective cover to take out the wiper blade; 4. Pull out the old wiper blade along the steel track; 5. Install the new rubber blade. Taking the 2021 Lavida as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, wheelbase 2688mm, and fuel tank capacity 51l.
I usually replace the wiper blades on my Lavida by myself, which feels quite convenient and cost-effective. The first step is to lift the wiper arm away from the windshield when parked, being careful not to let it snap back and crack the glass. Then locate the clip or button on the old wiper, press it to remove the old part. Next, use a small screwdriver to gently pry open the clamp and take out the worn blade, insert the new specialized blade you bought, making sure it's aligned and securely clipped in. After reattaching the wiper arm, spray some windshield washer fluid to test if it wipes smoothly without skipping. I replace them every six months, choosing original or Bosch brand blades for durability and clear visibility in the rain. The whole process takes about 15 minutes, saving the hassle of going to a repair shop. Remember not to do it under direct sunlight to prevent the blades from hardening and being difficult to install, making it an easy task that also extends the overall lifespan.
