Wipers for my E300

[MissyD]

The wipers on my E300 have the screen washer thingy incorporated in them, I cant seem to find them to order replacements as they aren't clearing the screen properly. Thanks

Valeo also make the heated magic vision wiper blades, here's a link to some but you'll need to measure the length to get the correct ones

If you decide to go with autodoc use the app (often discounted) , put them in your basket and take your time (days) before clicking on 'buy' and the price will often drop . Oh , and don't be in any hurry , parts can take a while to arrive . More importantly make sure that they are selling the correct part.

Sounds like a bad review of Autodoc , it's not really I have had decent service from them , just a little slow.

Apologies If you have used them before and know all of this.

OH and Valeo are OEM suppliers to MB , have been for years ...including radiators that split. But thats another ancient thread that has been done to death . Valeo make wiper blades for various manufacturers and the aftermarket.

Thanks guys, I'll check with Mercedes to compare the cost

Sorry, but it’s worth asking the obvious question…Have you deep cleaned the screen and the wiper blades?

Can often save time and money at this time of year.

What did Mercedes say Sarah?

What did Mercedes say Sarah?

I messaged Mercedes Newcastle and they quoted £115. I took Mel for a pre MOT check at my trusty indy @Jobsworth and managed to get them a bit cheaper . He fitted them and then got her MOT'd so a very good result all round

Thanks for the update.

Interestingly the blades are also heated. When we lifted Sarah’s off on a chilly Saturday morning the drivers one was quite warm, but the passenger side stone cold. The heating element had failed in that blade, so worthwhile to replace them, definitely. I look after club members with parts at trade price where I can. What goes around, and all that

I believe they do a heated and non heated version, mine are heated

I could be wrong, but I think the Valeo is currently only available for left hand drive vehicles
