Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 7, Golf VII, MK 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: Where is the windshield wiper motor located in the Volkswagen Golf?

In this video, we can see where the windshield wiper motor is located in the Volkswagen Golf and how to access it, which is useful in case we need to replace it. As shown, the motor is located inside the engine compartment, specifically in front of the windshield on the passenger side. To access it, we first open the hood, then remove the wiper caps and, using a 13mm socket wrench, unscrew both wipers. Then, we remove the upper plastic plate by releasing the corresponding securing clips and disconnect the motor's power connector. To disassemble it, we will need to use a T30 Torx wrench.
