Honda CRV wiper blades are sized at 26/16 inches. Wiper maintenance methods: Develop the good habit of cleaning wipers regularly, using specialized cleaning solution during car washes; Frequently check whether the wipers can maintain the same swing amplitude at different speeds, and correct any swing issues promptly; If there are slight scratches on the windshield after the wipers operate, it indicates that the wiper rubber is aging, and the wiper rubber should be replaced in time; Clean the dirt around the wipers promptly. Function of wipers: They are devices used to wipe off raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety.

My CR-V is the 2019 model, with wiper sizes of 26 inches for the driver side and 18 inches for the passenger side. However, I should remind you that wiper sizes vary across different model years of the CR-V. For example, my friend's 2014 model has a 24+16 inch configuration. Before purchasing new wipers, it's best to confirm your vehicle's production year. The simplest method is to measure the length of your old wiper frames with a tape measure. Last time at the auto parts market, I saw a car owner buy the wrong size - after installation, the wipers couldn't reach the edges, which is particularly dangerous in rainy weather. Nowadays when shopping online, you can directly select vehicle-specific models, as the U-hook interfaces are all compatible. Replacing them yourself is also very simple - just press the clip, pull out the old one, and insert the new one.

Research on CR-V wiper specifications reveals a pattern: The fifth-generation model (2017-2022) comes standard with 26+18 inches, while the fourth generation (2012-2016) uses a 24+18 inches combination. The third-generation model (2006-2011) has even smaller sizes, with 24 inches for the driver side and 16 inches for the passenger side. This data can be found in Chapter 8 (Accessories Page) of the user manual. Last time when helping a neighbor measure the size, I noticed that the wiper arm's end label prints the specific specification numbers. When selecting wiper blades, consider silicone material—though more expensive, its lifespan is twice as long as rubber, and it performs quieter and streak-free during rainy seasons. Remember to lift the wiper arm first when replacing it yourself to avoid rebound and potential glass breakage.

The wiper size for CR-V depends on the specific model. Currently, 26 and 18 inches are mainstream for newer versions. Just measured an older 2015 model for a colleague the other day – the driver's side was only 24 inches. When measuring, start from the end of the metal frame with a tape measure, as deformed rubber blades may affect accuracy. I recommend choosing three-beam wipers for cleaner wiping and less noise. Remember to lift the wiper arm and place a towel underneath for safety during installation. Northern drivers should opt for freeze-resistant rubber blades to prevent winter freezing on the windshield. Online shopping platforms can automatically match sizes by entering your vehicle's model and year – convenient and precise.
