Any got Aero windscreen wipers?

I have purchased some Bosch AR26U equivalent Aero windscreen wipers for my L322 however, at/over 70mph they begin buzzing and vibrating against the windscreen.

Has anyone done this mod and had this issue / found a way to sort it?

I presume it needs some kind of wind deflector, which wasn't included in the kit.

Mine had them on and I experienced a similar thing, also had that on another car. I just removed them and went for standard Bosch 808. They are perfect and stay put and effective at up to 120mph in my experience and have no reason to doubt it won’t stay like that beyond it.

I have these and I've had no problems at any speed or in any conditions.

No deflectors.

Thanks.

I have returned the Aero ones I bought and ordered the RDX ones - they look almost identical but, worth a go if you've had no issues.

+1 for Bosch 808. Can’t fault them.

If I get the same issue with the RDX ones, I'll get the Bosch 808s.

anyone having any joy sourcing L322 flat aero blades at the moment? Advanced Factors are out of stock of the "BV2626S DKC000040 FLAT BLADE CONVERSION SET BV2626S LAND ROVER Range Rover L322" that I used to buy from them Sad

I got fed up of the noise from the Aero blades and went back to Bosch 808. 2015 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

Literally just placed an order for these in the Black Friday sale: https://www.recambioscoches.es/champion/7547984

Hoping they're ok.

I've been trying to get hold of a set of the HQ Automotive ADA62-621, but getting them out of the UK without getting Censored by taxes is a pain, so I'll wait until I next visit and pick some up then, they seemed to get good reviews on here!

Really if you can’t find Aeros then try the Bosch 808. They’ve been absolutely perfect. I had terrible weather last month on my way back through Germany and the Netherlands and Belgium. They were absolutely perfect as ever, very well planted, even at very high speed on the autobahn, and most importantly kept the windscreen clear.

Problem is if you've already put the flats on, you'll have chucked out the adapters required for the 808's and they don't come with them.

I never can understand the logic fitting "aerowhatsits" to any vehicle.

If the standard mechanism, arms & wipers are up to spec' then I just don't see the point.

With everything in order then if you still can't see where you are going then perhaps slowing down is the answer.

Mine had worn aeros on it when I got it, I got an official 808 set and it was just hook and slot. So I guess there are different packs for the 808s or how Aeros get mounted Question Idea

My experience on my Mercedes is that they are considerably better at taking the form of the screen and clearing it.

However, they made noise at 70mph on my Range Rover - Because they aren't designed for Aero blades and don't have wind deflectors on the arms (late RRs do, but still not designed for Aero blades). So, I got rid of them.

If anyone wants to buy them though, here:
