Replacing the Wiper Blades on the Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Windshield wipers

When the wiper blades leave areas of the windscreen unclean, it is time to replace them to ensure good visibility in the rain. Sit in the driver's seat, turn on the instrument panel, then turn it off and push down the lever to the right of the steering wheel that controls the wipers: the blades will move to the top position for easier replacement. Lift the arm, press the lever on the joint of the blade, and push forward to remove it. After checking compatibility, insert the new blade. Repeat the same process for the other wiper.
