How to Remove the Rear Wiper from a Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Windshield wipers

Start by removing the protective cap from the rear wiper housing, which can be done easily by hand. This will expose the bolt securing the wiper. You will need to unscrew and remove this bolt. Once the bolt is removed, it is advisable to apply a lubricant, such as WD-40, to facilitate the removal of the wiper. At this point, you can remove it. If it is stuck, you can use a puller, but first, you must remove the water jet head. This way, you will have successfully removed the rear wiper from the vehicle.
