RE: Aero Wipers
OK. Many thanks! Do the old ones come off quite easily or do i need some kind of puller?

RE: Aero Wipers
Just curious, did any C5 RS6 come with the aero wipers? Mine has them, but then again I'm a second owner.
RE: Aero Wipers
Not in Europe, and I'm pretty sure not in the USA. I think they went with the classic design because the Aero ones aren't as good above 150mph

RE: Aero Wipers
The arms come off really easily. Just undoe the nut and give the old arms a bit of a twist/wiggle. It took me a couple of attempts to get the new arms fitted perfectly, as I was worried they might catch. All in all though, a worthwhile investment in my book

RE: Aero Wipers
OK got the arms and fitted. Have I got them the right way round or doing something stupid as the drivers blade doesnt cover the entire screen like the previous one did. It needs to go another 2.5"??? Is everyones like this who has replaced them. Presumably the part numbers quoted are for the Saloon as well as the Avant????
