Does the Mercedes-Benz A-Class have a rear wiper?
Every A-Class Hatchback is fitted with a rear wiper, and the rear blade is sold separately from the front pair. The rear blade is 14 inches (350mm) on the W168, 12 inches (300mm) on the W169, 10 inches (250mm) on the W176 and W176 Facelift and 13 inches (325mm) on the W177, while the V177 Sedan has two front wiper blades only.
What wiper connector does the Mercedes-Benz A-Class use?
The W168 uses a J-hook connector, where the hook on the arm passes through the blade adaptor and clicks into place. The W169 and W176 use a pinch tab connector that releases when the tabs are squeezed, and the W176 Facelift, W177 and V177 use the connector listed as GWB045, a model specific arm fitting.
Do the A-Class Hatchback and Sedan use the same front wiper blades?
Yes, the W177 Hatchback and V177 Sedan both take a 24 inch (600mm) driver blade and a 19 inch (475mm) passenger blade with the GWB045 connector. The only difference is that the Hatchback also has a 13 inch (325mm) rear blade.
How often should I replace Mercedes-Benz A-Class wiper blades?
Mercedes-Benz A-Class wiper blades should generally be replaced every 12 months, or sooner if they streak, smear or chatter. Hatchback owners should check the short rear blade at the same time, as it is easy to overlook and can harden from sun exposure on the tailgate.
