The Volkswagen Crafter is a large van built by German manufacturer Volkswagen, used widely across Australia for delivery, trade and passenger transport duties. Earlier models (2007-2016) take a 26 inch (650mm) blade on the driver side and a 24 inch (600mm) blade on the passenger side, while the current generation (2017 onwards) uses larger 28 inch (700mm) and 26 inch (650mm) blades, and sizes vary by year. Front wiper connector type differs between generations, using a pinch tab fitting on earlier models and a slim push button fitting on the current model, and only the earlier generation is fitted with a rear wiper.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Volkswagen Crafter take?

Wiper blade size on the Volkswagen Crafter depends on the build year. Models from 2007 to 2016 take a 26 inch (650mm) driver side blade and a 24 inch (600mm) passenger side blade, while the current model from 2017 onwards uses a 28 inch (700mm) driver side blade and a 26 inch (650mm) passenger side blade. Owners should check their vehicle year against the table above to confirm the correct fitment.

Does the Volkswagen Crafter have a rear wiper?

Yes, the earlier Volkswagen Crafter (2007-2016) is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard, and the rear blade is 16 inches (400mm) and sold separately from the front pair. The current model from 2017 onwards does not have a rear wiper fitted. Owners should check which generation they own before ordering a rear blade.

What wiper connector does the Volkswagen Crafter use?

The earlier Volkswagen Crafter (2007-2016) uses a pinch tab connector on the front wiper blades, while the current model from 2017 onwards uses a slim push button connector. These fittings are not interchangeable between generations. Owners should confirm their build year before ordering replacement blades.

Why did the Volkswagen Crafter wiper blade sizes change in 2017?

The 2017 update to the Volkswagen Crafter (SY SZ) brought a larger windscreen and revised wiper arm geometry compared to the earlier van, which is why the current model takes longer blades on both sides. This update also removed the rear wiper found on earlier vans. Owners upgrading from an older Crafter should not assume the same blade sizes carry over.

How often should I replace Volkswagen Crafter wiper blades?

Wiper blades on a Volkswagen Crafter typically need replacing every 6 to 12 months, or more often for vehicles used for regular long distance or commercial driving. Extended time parked outdoors accelerates wear on the rubber edge from UV exposure. Regular replacement keeps visibility clear and reduces strain on the wiper motor.
