As you're all well aware, there's clearly a design flaw with the driver's side wiper. It makes all sorts of crazy sounds and wobbles on the windshield. So has anyone found a wiper blade that works better than others?

Purchase an MB blade and get on with your life!

Well, I've been down that road, and they don't seem to be any better than the aftermarket ones.

Ive had the best results with the motomaster ones from Canadian Tire, but they're notorious for changing suppliers, so there's no guarantee I will always get the same blade.

You know - Plutoe - that's exactly what I did - - - kinda, sorta.................

It was right here on this site where I learned of MB's "free genuine MB wipers - with logo.............."

I printed the link, took same to dealer's high roller (El Dorado Hills) location: they couldn't have been nicer: washed the car too. Iridium Silver never looked better.

No complaints from this (USNR) sailor............

Plutoe, what's the best highway MPG you've calc'd on your diesel?

Free wipers??? Nice.

Is thys his only an MBUSA thing?

rly? When did you get them? I might need a set.
I had to buy passenger side one lately to replace a broken one. Home depot sells Bosch'es which are cheaper and sturdier than OEMs. They start squeaking when it is cold or just not enough water on the shield.
Anyways, HD has all the sizes but 28" for some reason, so out of luck for the driver side.

I got the last one in February. It just recently started making noise on the windshield again (a click sound when it changes directly at the upmost position), but it still wipes nicely and doesn't wobble like the Bosch ones did. Maybe I'll just have to change them more frequently.

All sizes are available at CT.
