Replacing the Rear Wiper Blade

Model: Mercedes Gl MK 1, X164 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Windshield wipers

Replacing the rear wiper blade is a maintenance task that is often neglected but is essential when reversing and the rear screen is particularly dirty. To replace the blade, simply lift the wiper arm, rotate the blade approximately 90 degrees, and pull it outward to release it. Ensure that the new blade has the same length and type of attachment, bring it close to the arm, and press it to fit perfectly into its seat: once activated, you will immediately see the benefits of the new blade.
