Still applying toothpaste? Teach you to replace wiper at low cost

September 23, 2024

Shakespeare once said: No matter how beautiful a thing is, it will be lost one day. Car wiper blades are no exception. If they are used for a long time, they will not be cleaned and affect driving safety. How often should the wiper blade be replaced? In fact, this is also a question for many car owners. There is actually no standard answer to this. It has a lot to do with the frequency of use and the environment of use. The most intuitive thing is actually to see whether it can be wiped clean and the amount of noise. If it is not cleaned and it is very loud, you need to replace it. Common problems such as horizontal stripes, oil spots, and missing scratches in areas.

Xiaowo has been driving it for a year and a half, and has never changed the wiper. I found that it was a little hard to scrape and it was very loud. My friend asked me to squeeze toothpaste on the adhesive strip and said it was very effective. I tried it and found that it could only be used for about a week, but I could only solve the problem of not being able to scrape it clean, but the sound was still very loud. Therefore, if you can simply use toothpaste to make an emergency, the key is to replace the wiper strip. There are general car washes, and the prices range from tens to hundreds. 4S shops may be more expensive. After all, this is not high-tech, so there is no need to pursue the original factory. After all, the original factory is also the source of purchase. So, I plan to buy it directly online and exchange it myself!

There are two types on the Internet. One is the lazy version, which can be replaced directly when you come back, and there is a card holder; the other is to manually replace the adhesive strip, which tests your hands-on ability. I bought the lazy version directly, which is said to be original from Volvo. I started replacing it immediately after the arrival:

1、 First click “Front wiper is in maintenance status” on the menu bar of the central control screen, so that the wiper will reach the middle position and stand it up with your hands;
2、 Press the middle button and take out the wiper;
3、 Insert the brand new wiper in and finish it with a “knock” sound. Pay attention to the length not to reverse.
(It’s that simple. It only cost 60 yuan or even cheaper, and the effect is very good. It’s clean and the sound is very low. Driving safety in rainy days is guaranteed)
