What is the wiper size for the 10th-generation Civic?
2 Answers
The 10th-generation Civic uses a 26/18 frameless wiper with a standard U-hook. Please ensure you purchase the correct model of wiper blade when replacing. Wiper maintenance tips: 1. Dust removal: When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping. 2. Manual cleaning of stubborn dirt: For other stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, clean them manually. These substances can easily damage the wiper blade, resulting in poor wiping performance. In severe cases, the wiper motor may also be affected. 3. Gentle return: When lifting the wiper blade during car washing or routine cleaning, hold the "spine" of the wiper blade and return it gently. Do not let it snap back abruptly. 4. Ice scraper for frost: In winter, use an ice scraper to remove frost from the windshield surface first to avoid putting extra strain on the wiper.
I found that the standard wiper size for the 10th-generation Civic is 24 inches on the driver's side and 18 inches on the passenger's side. Having driven this car for a while, wiper maintenance is crucial because blurred vision in rainy weather can easily lead to accidents. The rubber strips are prone to aging, especially in hot weather, so I recommend checking the wiper condition once a year. If there are water streaks or incomplete wiping, it's time to replace them. Incorrect sizes can cause the wipers to jump or fail to reach the edges, so I always measure the arm length or refer to the user manual when installing new ones. Some accessory brands like Bosch or Michelin offer frameless wiper options, which perform well at a reasonable price. In short, regular maintenance ensures safety first—don’t wait until a heavy rainstorm to discover issues.
