Hi all,
I’ve got a BMW i7 and after only about 1,000 miles, the factory wipers have already started leaving streaks on the windscreen.
I did contact BMW, but they’ve said this is a “wear and tear” item and weren’t helpful, which is frustrating given how little use the car has had.
I tried to sort it myself by buying Bosch wipers of the correct size (with universal attachments), but I’ve run into another issue - none of the adapters seem to fit properly. The plastic clips are too small and not the right shape for the arm, so it doesn’t feel secure or stable at all.
Has anyone else had this issue with the i7 (or newer BMWs)? Are these using a specific connector that isn’t compatible with standard “universal” fittings?
Do I need to buy replacements directly from BMW, or is there an aftermarket option that actually fits properly?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance!
