Valeo Ultimate Wiper Blades

[H3PAC]

My Valeos arrived quickly from tirerack.com and I installed them. Had a good rain to test them out in.....awesome performance. Can't wait for the snow and ice! Thanks for the info guys. So far, well worthwhile.

Aw, a new trinket to hang on your H3 and all you can do is wait.

Is it bad to quote oneself>

Ok, after about a month.
Good:
I like the ability of these wipers to keep the windshield clean without steaks. Although there are some, at times. Less then the standard wiper.

Bad:
On both wipers now, the end cap becomes damaged. Passenger side, end cap came off at some point. Don't think it was me while brushing snow off the truck. Driver's side (today), the end cap was on but had been slightly chipped underneath. ON both, this allows the medle splines to widen, and the wiper basically splits open/frays its ends, and is just about useless. I also notice that ice can freeze up on it easily which affects how well it pouts pressure across the whole windshield.

So for sunner use, I like them much better. For winter, I am not sure. Sice I haven't used them thru a summer yet, I can't tell what is causing the end cap issue to fail.

oh, I'll try to get some pics in a few days.

I've put these wipers on both my H3 & the wifes Cadillac SRX. One of the wipers on the SRX is starting to chatter. No end cap problems yet.

So far, mine are performing flawlessly. Best wipers I have ever owned.

wait and wait and wait...took my H3 in on Tuesday for an oil change/tire rotation, a new passenger door handle (2nd one for my h3), new roof rails and a windshield vibration noise that was driving me insane. I was told that I could pick it up Wednesday afternoon. Wed. I get a call saying the dealership is waiting for parts, H3 will be ready thurs. Thursday comes around and yeah you guessed it. Still not ready. Friday comes along...STILL not ready. No clue why it took the service dept. 4 days to finish the work but I'm happy to finally have my H3 home again. Now all I gotta do is put the new blades on and I'm good to go!

Almost forgot- the dealership completely detailed the inside/outside of my H3 as well....washed it, waxed it the whole 9yds. I didn't request this nor did they charge me for it. It REALLY makes me wonder exactly what they were doing w/my H3 when it was in for service. Things that make ya go hmm........

I'm so glad it's yet to snow here. I hate snow. I don't mind the cold- it's the snow that's a pain in the ass
