How to choose the right wiper blades for your Subaru
Getting the right fit on your Subaru comes down to three details: blade length, the type of connector on the wiper arm, and whether there is a rear wiper to replace as well. Follow these steps to choose with confidence.
- Choose your Subaru model from the list above, then find your build year in its size table.
- Make sure the sizes match your body style, as versions of the same model do not always share the same blades.
- Look at the connector listed for your model, as the right connector lets the blades click straight onto the arms.
- If your car has a rear wiper, replace the rear blade at the same time as the front pair for even wiping.
Subaru Wiper Blade FAQs
How often should Subaru wiper blades be replaced?
Plan on new wiper blades for your Subaru every 12 months, and sooner if wiping becomes noisy, patchy or smeared. Sun, heat and dust all wear the rubber edge, so cars that live outdoors usually need replacements more often.
Can I fit Subaru wiper blades myself?
Yes, Subaru wiper blades can be fitted at home in about 60 seconds without tools. The new blade clips onto the existing wiper arm using the same connector as the original, and easy-to-follow installation instructions are included.
Should I replace both front wiper blades on my Subaru at the same time?
Yes, replacing both front blades together gives an even, consistent wipe across the windscreen. Blades wear at a similar rate, so pairing a new blade with an old one often leaves streaks on one side. If a rear wiper is fitted, replacing it along with the front pair keeps your rear view clear as well.
Why are my Subaru wiper blades streaking or chattering?
Streaks are a sign that the rubber edge is worn, cracked or coated in grime, and chattering usually happens when the blade skips across dirty glass or has lost its flexibility. A good clean of the windscreen and blades may help, but if the problem returns, the blades should be replaced.
Can I use a longer wiper blade than the listed size on my Subaru?
It is best to use the sizes listed for your Subaru. A blade that is too long can hit the windscreen frame or clash with the other blade, while a blade that is too short leaves an unwiped strip in your line of sight.
How can I make my Subaru wiper blades last longer?
Avoid using the wipers on a dry windscreen, keep the washer bottle topped up, and clean the rubber edges with a damp cloth from time to time. Parking in the shade or under cover also protects the blades from the heat and UV that age them fastest.
Why do Subaru models need specific wiper blades?
Subaru is the Japanese carmaker known for its symmetrical all-wheel drive and boxer engines, in models such as the Forester, Outback, Impreza and WRX. Each Subaru model has its own windscreen shape, so blade lengths and connector types vary between models. Checking the size guide for your exact model and year ensures the new blades fit correctly and clear the glass properly.
