Have used the Bosch 808s for the last 6-8 years with no problems until recently
I am getting only a couple of months before the blades start screeching and juddering on the glass

Anyone else had an issue with the 808s only lasting a few months recently?
Are there alternatives? Am thinking of going back to the original LR part.

Hi I bought some late last year and within a few months they have started to screech, primarily on the passenger side. I wondered if there was think layer of dirty on the screen that was causing it but after cleaning the screeching returns not long after which annoys and makes me not want to use the wipers on the auto setting.

I had the HQ flat blades that were awful after just a few months.

I switched back to the 808's and so far they've been fantastic but that's only been 6-8 weeks ago I reckon, maybe less.

Wondering if
The strength of screen wash might accelerate aging of the rubber in the blades?
So the stuff that claims to be effective to -10 degrees or so, maybe that accelerates the rubber aging ?

Used the Bosch 808 for years tried the aero blades but ended back with the 808 last lot screech a bit on passenger side - however I am about to replace the arms as they are a bit shabby and 15 years and well over 200k miles in so will see if that helps
