Looking to replace the wipers on my 2018

Genuine or any suggestions for a real novice and easy to fit

Much appreciated

I bought Bosch ones from the internet.
You need to set them to park as you can’t lift them off the screen fully.
All detailed in the owners manual alternatively check YouTube.
Easy to do. 10min job.

Wet screen with washers. Switch off. Switch ignition on and off. Press wiper lever up and hold for three seconds - wipers will will come to a stop in vertical position. You can then fold them away from the screen. When finished, fold back onto screen. Switch on ignition, press lever downwards.

Thank you

Getting these from Amazon

I had a full Bosch set on my old f31, however the rear one never fitted properly, the clip was not a tight fit (flung off every time you touched it when cleaning the car) and got smeary quickly. So stumped up for a genuine one which was fine.

I fitted Goodyear ones to my F36 and also had issues (noisy wipers), going back to genuine BMW solved the problem.

You’re far better off buying genuine at the dealer. They’re only a couple of quid more than non OEM.

Genuine at my interim service was a tad high

£65.00 a pair. Now please that’s just taking the p!!!

About £25 to fit? How much do they charge an hour!
