Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a Mercedes-Benz R-Class take?
The R-Class (W251, 2006-2013) takes a 28 inch (700mm) blade on the driver side and a 20 inch (500mm) blade on the passenger side. The same sizes apply to every year of the model.
Does the Mercedes-Benz R-Class have a rear wiper?
Yes, the Mercedes-Benz R-Class is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard. The rear blade is 12 inches (300mm) and is sold separately from the front pair, and owners should replace all three blades at the same time for consistent visibility.
What wiper connector does the Mercedes-Benz R-Class use?
The R-Class uses a pinch tab connector, where the blade clips onto the arm and releases when the tabs are squeezed together. No tools are needed to change the blades.
Does the R-Class use the same wiper blades as the GL-Class X164?
The R-Class takes the same 28 inch (700mm) driver blade, 20 inch (500mm) passenger blade, pinch tab connector and 12 inch (300mm) rear blade as the GL-Class X164. Owners should still order using the R-Class row in the table to be sure of the fit.
How often should I replace Mercedes-Benz R-Class wiper blades?
Mercedes-Benz R-Class wiper blades should generally be replaced every 12 months, or sooner if they streak, smear or chatter. The 28 inch (700mm) driver blade is very long, so streaks at its outer end are usually the first sign of wear.
