Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Mazda CX-5 take?

The Mazda CX-5 takes a 24 inch (600mm) blade on the driver side and an 18 inch (450mm) blade on the passenger side. This size applies to both the KE generation built from 2012 to 2017 and the KF generation built from 2017 to 2023. Only the front connector type differs between the two generations.

Does the Mazda CX-5 have a rear wiper?

Yes, the Mazda CX-5 is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard across both generations. The rear blade is 14 inches (350mm) and is sold separately from the front pair. Replacing all three blades together helps maintain consistent visibility in wet conditions.

What wiper connector does the Mazda CX-5 use?

The connector type depends on the generation. The KE series, built from 2012 to 2017, uses a hook-style connector, while the KF series, built from 2017 to 2023, uses a GWB044 connector. Confirming the build year helps ensure the correct fitting is ordered.

How can I tell whether my Mazda CX-5 is a KE or KF model?

The KE generation was built from 2012 to 2017 and the KF generation followed from 2017 onwards with a styling and platform update. Checking the compliance plate or owner's manual for the build date is the most reliable way to confirm which generation applies. The table above also lists the matching years for each generation.

How often should I replace Mazda CX-5 wiper blades?

Wiper blades on the Mazda CX-5 should generally be replaced every 12 months, or sooner if streaking or noise develops. Sun exposure and heat in the Australian climate can shorten the lifespan of wiper rubber. Replacing the front pair and rear blade together helps keep the windscreen and rear window clear.
