How to Change the Wiper Blades in a Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 6, Golf VI, Golf 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Windshield wipers

To replace the wiper blades on a Volkswagen Golf 6, lift the wiper arms away from the windscreen to the service position. Next, rotate the blade to access the attachment system and press the locking tab to detach it from the arm, sliding it downwards. At this point, take the new blade, ensuring it is the same type and length, and insert it onto the arm until you hear the mechanism click into place. Repeat the same operation for the other wiper. Finally, gently lower the arms back onto the windscreen, avoiding letting them drop onto the glass, and check the proper functioning of the new blades by activating the wipers.
