Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Nissan Altima take?

The Nissan Altima takes a 26 inch (650mm) blade on the driver side and a 16 inch (400mm) blade on the passenger side. The same pair applies across the L33 range from 2013 to 2017. The two sides are very different lengths, so they cannot be swapped.

Does the Nissan Altima have a rear wiper?

No, the Nissan Altima does not have a rear wiper blade. This model is fitted with two front wiper blades only, which can be confirmed in the specifications on the product page. A front pair covers the car in full.

What wiper connector does the Nissan Altima use?

The Nissan Altima uses a J-Hook connector on both front wiper arms. J-Hook is the most common fitting across the Nissan range and is used throughout the L33 run. Blades supplied for the Altima arrive with the correct adaptor already attached.

Is the 26 inch driver blade on the Altima unusually long?

Yes, at 26 inches (650mm) the Altima driver blade is one of the longest fitted to any Nissan sedan. The wide, steeply raked L33 windscreen needs the extra reach to clear the driver view properly. Fitting a shorter blade leaves an unwiped band across the top of the screen.

How often should I replace Nissan Altima wiper blades?

Wiper blades on the Nissan Altima should be replaced around every 12 months. Longer blades carry more weight along the arm, so a worn driver blade tends to lift and chatter before the passenger side does. Replacing both together keeps the wipe even across the windscreen.
