How do your free wiper blade refills look like?

audiphile · 01-24-2008, 11:38 PM

Got the first year service completed today, with wiper blades refilled. Here is how they re-installed the blades:

[EDIT: better pictures]

They better give me my old blades back so that i can install the refills properly, even if it costs me

man, your windscreen looks like they dusted it with powdered sugar. what's with that?

wtf! Go back and get it done right and have them clean the glass too.

Maybe its just me, but I'm not sure mine look like that.....

txusa03 · 01-25-2008, 07:31 AM

Is it becasue they put the left on the right side and the right side on the left?

Pfft...which dealer was that? I need to know who to avoid, Autohaus is already on my blacklist. Probably going to Town & Country for my next service and repairs in Feb.

I see nothing wrong with it. He has an 07 335 and that might be the newer wipper replacement. Whereas those with 06 still have the old style wipper like in the DIY.

The rubber squeegy appears to be on the correct side to me.
