Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does an Audi A1 take?
Wiper blade sizes vary slightly by generation. The current A1 (2019-2024) takes a 26 inch (650mm) blade on the driver side and an 18 inch (450mm) blade on the passenger side, while the earlier 8X generation (2010-2018) uses a 24 inch (600mm) driver blade and a 15 inch (375mm) passenger blade. Exact sizes for each year are listed in the table above.
Does the Audi A1 have a rear wiper?
Yes, the Audi A1 is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard across all generations. The rear blade measures 13 inches (325mm) on the 2012-2018 Sportback and the 2019-2024 Hatchback, and 14 inches (350mm) on the 2010-2013 Hatchback. It is sold separately from the front pair, and all three blades should be replaced together for consistent visibility.
What wiper connector does the Audi A1 use?
The Audi A1 uses a slim push button connector on the front wipers across all generations. This adaptor design has remained consistent from the 2010 model through to the current 2019-2024 Hatchback. Owners can be confident the same connector type applies regardless of which A1 generation they own.
Why did wiper blade sizes increase on the newer Audi A1?
The GB generation A1 (2019-2024) uses a larger windscreen than the earlier 8X models, which is why its driver and passenger blade sizes both increased. Owners upgrading from an older 8X model should check their exact year before ordering to avoid buying the wrong size. The Buy Now links in the table above are matched to each specific year range.
How often should I replace Audi A1 wiper blades?
Audi recommends replacing wiper blades every 6 to 12 months under normal driving conditions. Wiper blades on the Audi A1 should be replaced sooner if they begin to streak, skip or squeak, since this indicates the rubber has worn or hardened. Regular replacement keeps visibility clear in wet weather.
