Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Honda CR-V take?

Blade sizes depend on the series. The RD (1997-2001) uses two matching 19 inch (475mm) blades, the RD (2001-2006) uses a 21 inch (525mm) driver and 20 inch (500mm) passenger, the RE (2007-2012) uses a 26 inch (650mm) driver and 17 inch (425mm) passenger, and the RM (2012-2017) and RW (2017-2022) both use a 26 inch (650mm) driver and 16 inch (400mm) passenger. All series also have a rear wiper.

Does the Honda CR-V have a rear wiper?

Yes, the Honda CR-V is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard across all generations covered on this page. The rear blade is sold separately from the front pair. Owners should replace all three blades at the same time for consistent visibility.

What wiper connector does the Honda CR-V use?

The Honda CR-V uses a J-Hook connector on both front wiper arms across all generations from 1997 to 2022. This is the most common connector type in Australia and replacement blades with a J-Hook adaptor will fit directly without additional hardware.

Why did the Honda CR-V RD series have equal-length wiper blades?

The first-generation CR-V (RD, 1997-2001) featured a symmetrical wiper arm layout with two matching 19 inch (475mm) blades, which was more common on older SUV designs. From the second-generation RD (2001-2006) onwards, the CR-V adopted the more conventional asymmetric layout with a longer driver-side blade.

How often should I replace Honda CR-V wiper blades?

Honda CR-V wiper blades should be replaced every 12 months or when streaking, squeaking, or uneven wiping becomes noticeable. Given the CR-V has both front and rear blades, it is recommended to replace all three at the same time to maintain clear visibility across the full windscreen and rear window.
