Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class take?
The X164 (2006-2012) takes a 28 inch (700mm) driver blade and a 20 inch (500mm) passenger blade. The X166 (2013-2015) takes a 26 inch (650mm) driver blade and a 22 inch (550mm) passenger blade.
Does the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class have a rear wiper?
Yes, every Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard. The rear blade is 12 inches (300mm) on both the X164 and X166 and is sold separately from the front pair.
What wiper connector does the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class use?
The X164 uses a pinch tab connector, where the blade clips onto the arm and releases when the tabs are squeezed together. The X166 uses a push button connector, so blades from the two generations are not interchangeable.
Which model replaced the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class?
The GL-Class was renamed the GLS-Class from 2016, starting with the X166 GLS. GLS owners should use the GLS-Class size guide, as the passenger blade size changes from the GL-Class X166.
How often should I replace Mercedes-Benz GL-Class wiper blades?
Mercedes-Benz GL-Class wiper blades should generally be replaced every 12 months, or sooner if they streak, smear or chatter. The 28 inch (700mm) driver blade on the X164 is very long, so it tends to show streaks at the outer end first.
