What are the size and interface type of the Audi Q5 wiper blades?
2 Answers
Audi Q5 wiper blades have a size of 26+21 inches and use a U-shaped interface. There is no fixed replacement cycle, and they should be repaired or replaced promptly when abnormal noise or incomplete wiping occurs. Replacement tutorial: 1. Find "Change wiper position" in the "Maintenance and Inspection" section of the car system menu, then check and confirm; 2. Push the wiper blade towards the front of the car, and it will lock in place when reaching a specific position. Remove the old rubber strip device; 3. When inserting the new rubber strip, you can stagger the two metal pieces of the wiper blade up and down, paying attention to inserting it into the first groove. 4. After installing the new rubber strip, reverse the disassembly steps, and the wiper blade can be smoothly reinstalled.
The wiper size for the Audi Q5 is typically 26 inches on the driver's side and 18 inches on the passenger side, with the common interface type being the Hook Type, which is compatible with most wiper blades. As a car enthusiast, I’ve replaced them several times myself and found that the size significantly affects the wiping performance—the 26-inch blade perfectly covers the driver’s area, while the 18-inch one doesn’t obstruct the view. The hook-type interface makes installation simple: just remove the old blade and hook on the new one. Be careful not to choose the wrong size, as it can cause the wipers to judder or leave streaks, which is especially dangerous during rainy seasons when visibility is crucial. Many brands on the market are compatible with the hook-type interface, so it’s best to check the packaging to confirm suitability for Audi models. Regularly inspecting the rubber blades for wear can also extend their lifespan.
