yep - what he says - or you could pay over the odds for them like what I did from wiperblades.co.uk.

I still find it difficult to believe that the fix was that simple Confused Geoff

Mine are set as Per when I purchased the car Carl... Although that said, I don't tend to drive it in bad weather as I'm a bit of a tart with it so don't have the problem if I don't use the wipers much!!!

United Kingdom 2008 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Java Black

Guys has this now sorted the scuffing of the window, as I am also getting the smears across the passenger side, really annoying actually, but I do not get a thud.

has changing them to the bosch 808 sorted it & I presume these will fit mine as I have a MY08 model RR.

If it has worked I will order them now Bow down Mutt

2016 Range Rover Vogue SDV8 Loire Blue

Just had the first service on my 10 month old car, asked them to adjust the wipers to cure the clunk. they said the ruber was hard and charged me £28 for new blades. We have an understanding that if they have failed to cure the problem I will insert them in an area of low solar activity. Let it rain. letters not necessarily in the right order

Mine does the same. Have ordered some more (808) off bay.

Should be here soon.

Hopefully should sort. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

TUESDAY TOP TIP...

order the wipers from eurocarparts @ £17.94 , then add something extra to bring the cost over £20, for instance a £4.99 tow rope and then enter code UKPAS25 ..
cost comes down to £17.99 so effectively you get the tow rope for free..

free delivery btw..
