Default Wiper Blades best source? OEM?

G'morning,

Seems like a trite subject or question but we've had the 2011 A4 for only 5 months now and with the winter weather being what it is...and wifey's travel...interstate for 20 miles...what's the best source and/or brand for wiper blades or wiper insert replacements?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Sgt Steve

For my 2008 I go them at the dealer. They were actually a little cheaper than from Autozone. I think I paid around $30 or $40 dollars for them. Autozone was $80

That's cool. I know with the Subaru I do use their blades. Sometimes, sometimes...the OEM is really the best all-around outcome.

An Audi is like a Harley (I have one): if you own one of these vehicles the industry thing ya' got the money and yer' gonna' spend it!

Peace,
Sgt Steve

Default Apologies before I ask, again...

Sorry ladies and gentlemen,

I asked previously and don't know what I did with the response...oil dipsticks...aftermarket.

Where did you folks order from? I know there's several but good experience with an Audi parts/access supplier?

^ For OE/OEM parts, you might take a look towards the bottom of the first post in this thread for a list of roughly twenty popular/reliable parts vendors: https://www.audiforums.com/forum/aud...-9-4-a-213686/.

Have bought parts and had positive experiences from a good number of them, and recently released that shopping tool to handle all those sites. Might make researching and finding parts a little easier.

Just replied to your other thread, as well, by the way.
