What is the size of the Magotan wiper?

[JoannaLee]

The driver's side wiper of the Magotan is 24 inches, and the right side is 22 inches. It is a special connectorless wiper. Here is more information about the Magotan: 1. The Volkswagen Magotan originates from the Future B6, which is closely related to the Passat B6. It is also the first B-class sedan produced and sold by FAW-Volkswagen since its establishment. 2. In July 2016, the new generation Magotan, derived from the eighth-generation German B-class car, was officially launched. Built on the new MQB B platform, it is equipped with a series of intelligent technologies surpassing its peers, and multiple high-end configurations exclusive to C-class cars were introduced for the first time.

I've been driving a Magotan for five years, and I remember the wiper sizes are 26 inches for the driver's side and 18 inches for the passenger's side. This U-type interface is quite common. Last time I replaced the wipers myself, I specifically measured them. When the rubber strips age, they leave water streaks, especially when driving at night in the rain, which is particularly straining on the eyes. I usually check the elasticity of the rubber strips every six months and replace them if I find any cracks. When replacing, you need to press the buckle to remove them—don't force them off. Although original parts are a bit more expensive, they are more durable. Some aftermarket parts can cause the wipers to jump around. Regularly removing oil film from the windshield is also important; otherwise, even the best wipers won't clean properly.

Just helped my neighbor replace the wiper blades for their Magotan two days ago. The sizes are correct at 26 inches for the driver side and 18 inches for the passenger side. Pay special attention to the wiper arm connector - the U-hook type clip is quite fragile. When measuring the length, always measure from the top of the rubber blade to the end metal joint for the most accurate sizing. I'd recommend choosing silicone rubber blades as they last more than twice as long as regular rubber ones. Before rainy season, it's best to check if the wiper pressure is even - you can place a newspaper on the windshield and observe which areas remain wet after wiping to identify any issues.

Both of my Magotans have 26-inch wipers on the driver's side and 18-inch on the passenger side. The easiest way to replace wipers is to take a photo of the old wiper's connector style and search online by model and year. When replacing, remember to lift the wiper arm and place a towel underneath to prevent it from snapping back and cracking the windshield. Always clear any debris on the glass—once a small stone scratched my windshield. In winter, prevent freezing; don’t force the wipers if they’re stuck to avoid burning out the motor.

The 26-inch wiper for the driver's side and 18-inch for the passenger side of the Magotan are highly versatile. Last time I bought wipers, I found there were actually three models for the same size, and later learned the difference lies in the interface design. When installing, you need to press the buttons on both sides of the interface to remove it, which is a crucial detail. The wiper rubber blades should be cleaned with a damp cloth every three months to remove oil stains, otherwise, they will leave blurry streaks in the rain. It's best to avoid parking under trees, as tree sap is particularly damaging to the rubber blades.

I have a lot to say about wiper sizes. For the Magotan, 26 inches for the driver's side and 18 inches for the passenger side are the most suitable sizes based on actual testing. Incorrect sizes can result in missed corners, and an oversized passenger-side wiper may hit the A-pillar. The replacement cycle depends on the condition of the rubber blades—replace them if they start skipping. When purchasing, ensure the curvature of the support frame fits properly; I once bought the wrong frame, and the wiper skipped across the windshield. By the way, removing insect residue from the glass is also crucial, as leftover insect remains can significantly shorten the lifespan of the wiper blades.
