Just figured it out. For anyone who is watching this and your mk7 has push start ignition: 1. With your foot off the brake pedal push the start engine button. This will put the car in on. 2. Push the start button again to turn it off 3. Hit the wiper blade stalk on the steering column down once. And the wipers will go into park position. Make sure to have your foot off the brake pedal. Otherwise you will start the car

@JFinns 5 лет назад

Don't you mean foot off the clutch otherwise you will start the car? :D

@craigw.scribner6490 4 года назад

@@JFinns No, he means "brake"on a car with a DSG automatic transmission. Thanks, Peter!

@sanelemazibuko1716 4 года назад

On a manual, off the clutch. On an automatic, off the break.

@tariksinanovic5709 2 года назад

I mean it works either way

@luckymeat3050 3 года назад

I've had my car 4 years and didn't even know you could park with the wiper blades up! Great video!

@tredfxman 10 месяцев назад

Thanks DAP! I want to point out that its very important to press the wiper down VERY QUICKLY after you press on/off. I had to do it 3 times on my GTI Clubsport MK7. Always very clear videos! Greetings from Sweden! 👍

@Jsbs1991f 7 лет назад

I'm always watching these videos and I don't even own a GTI or really want one. But I am a VW and Audi fan.

@Deutscheautoparts 7 лет назад

Awesome thanks for watching

@garethjudd5840 2 года назад

Thank you for this. I've been trying to get the blades in the upright position for ages.

@gmoney9961 3 года назад

Flawless instructions. Used Bosch OE replacements on my wife’s MK 7.5. Thank you!

@tredfxman 3 года назад

Bosch - King of the Hill! 👍

@ericryan08 3 года назад

Same here. Super simple install. Bosch is quality German part 👍

@largol33t1 Год назад

How the hell do you use Bosch? Nothing works on those screwed up "connectors".

@YashJoshi4 6 месяцев назад

Same just fitted Bosch Aerotwins on the Mrs’s R, massive improvement

@fernandomartinez-sz4jz 7 лет назад

I always wanted to know how to change my wipers but didn't have the slightest clue on how to do it thank you guys

@sanelemazibuko1716 2 года назад

These videos help, trust me. Its little things but make a huge difference.

@AdamWilson78 2 года назад

Hey Paul I bought these this week from y'all, got them today and installed them today using this video. Thanks for all y'all do.

@Deutscheautoparts 2 года назад

Thank you so much for the support.

@y2k56k 5 лет назад

Thanks for the video. This is the first vehicle I have owned with park position wiper arms.

@klevabot3122 2 года назад

I swear everything about my MK7 I learnt from this guy thank you so much 🙏

@vkmicrov 4 года назад

i've been puzzled about how to replace the wipers for awhile... or how to make them stick up in case it's snowing so they dont' freeze to the windshield... finally i have my answers! VW is fancy as heck lol Thanks

@deflep007 4 года назад

I have 2017 gti and it my 1st volkswagen(always had japanese cars)..Everyone told me they are good cars but hard to regularly maintain.Gotta say ,so far basic maintenance on this car about the the or even easier than my acura rsx or cl. Im sure some things will be harder but so far pretty similar

@The36ACE Год назад

DAP, you are the man! Thanks for posting these videos. They are very helpful!!

@das_schnitzel 3 года назад

Thanks for this. I didn't know about park position at all. Only thing is that this could be a 50 second video and it drags a bit. Really appreciate it though

@carbonio28 5 лет назад

Before I bought my golf r last year, watched few video reviews and few complain how almost impossible to change them without opening the hood lol

@mrnothing249 4 года назад

Thanks firsharing The tip with ingimtion on and offthen then hitti.g the viper handle once was great

@firstplayerfilms 2 года назад

thank you!!! was so easy after watching your video

@pilauopala843 2 месяца назад

I place a blanket on the windshield while replacing the wiper to protect it.

@laimonpalkim3940 2 года назад

Thank you, was very easy to change after your guide.

@joshuapadilla9253 7 лет назад

I have a manual '15 and have noticed that when I put it in first or reverse and start to pull away, the wipers (already down) move even further down (slightly but audible). Has anyone else noticed this? And does it serve a purpose?

@Ben-bg2eg 6 лет назад

Joshua Padilla very very late but it flip the blade to face down i believe to preserve the blade

@OnyxHaze 3 года назад

Could you please let us know the type and size of each wiper blade? Thanks

@JustAlb1n 7 лет назад

i remember someone was trying to change the wiper blades on mk5 when the arm was at the normal position and i said there's an easier way where the wiper comes up :D i wouldnt go for valeo though, they never last! but thats me.

@Jawz123 7 лет назад

Is it the same method for push start ignition?

@MaxWobbles 7 лет назад

That's a pretty sweet Subaru in the background.

@ahpaul82 2 года назад

what can I do if my wipers can't do the service position? any else setting I can do?

@ruskeating6252 7 лет назад

Thanks great video very helpfull

@CertaBonumCertamen 6 лет назад

Some advice: you may want to wear mechanix or other thick gloves. Gouged out some flesh today while pulling the old wipers off, was a bloody mess. There was a secondary click after pressing the release button that held the wipers in place on the bracket, which required a bit of effort to pull off. If you pull the old wipers off by the hinge area, you'll risk contact with the metal brackets.

@Vwgti2011 7 месяцев назад

Happened to me to first time changing the wipers. I've got a Mk7.5 GTI and I swear the windshield wipers arms are warped, I've never struggled so hard installing damn wipers lol. The maddening part is I start gentle... end up really trying to force the fucker in there... next thing I know when I'm out of will the things slide right in. Nothing has been learned

@williamos1985 4 года назад

What do you guys pay for the front wipers? I have the Bosch 650mm/450mm set and paid 34 Euros (like 40 dollars.... i think?)

@nmcc45 9 месяцев назад

9 Australian dollars

@chitown849 7 лет назад

heyyyy what anout the one in the rear?(; lol great video. love the content. very helpful when needed (:

@vkmicrov 4 года назад

the 1 on the rear window is just - pull it back to make it stick out xD nothing fancy needed there, the replacement is the same little quick connect tab.

@oh_look_bananas 11 месяцев назад

Imagine just being able to lift the wiper arms up without having to put in a secret password.

I recently lost the end rubber cap to one of my wipers.

@Deutscheautoparts 7 лет назад

Sounds like its time for new wipers ; ) deutscheautoparts.com/mk7-golf-gti-valeo-wiper-blade-set-5gm998002.html

@rfausey 7 лет назад

Is the rear wiper blade included, or is it sold separately?

@nephicus339 5 лет назад

Driver, passenger and rear wiper blades are all sold seperately.

@hackneo64 7 лет назад

I get some dragging or chatter on my drivers side wiper sometimes and these are new VW wipers. My old pair had the same thing happen but the drivers side one dragged so much it tore off part of the rubber. Seems like a design flaw. And Im driving a mk7 gti.

@Deutscheautoparts 7 лет назад

mentioned below you might consider to clay bar the windshield to remove and material that might be stuck there.

@Hubscharber 7 лет назад

These cars hate Rain-x, mine did the same until I got rid of it with glass polish. Use Bon-Ami 1885 or something to get rid of it.

@stuyboy 7 лет назад

have you found a blade that doesn't chatter on the mk7s?

@Deutscheautoparts 7 лет назад

with limited testing on these blades I have not seen chatter Paul

@stonebarrington3647 7 лет назад

Might want to claybar / wax your windshield. the stock ones work smooth for me.

@tasmedic 5 лет назад

Who changes blades when you can change the rubbers at 1/4 or less, of the cost?!! BTW, I don't advise anyone to let the metal wiper arm rest on the windscreen while you're changing blades. It very often leaves a mark.

@VictorYarema 3 года назад

What mark are you talking about? There will be few atoms scratch if you do that gently.

@nmcc45 9 месяцев назад

No you can't

@largol33t1 Год назад

This is the one thing I HATE about VW cars. You cannot buy wiper blades for them from the store. You have to waste extra money because VW uses a clip system that is totally proprietary. There is NOTHING that works with their fucked up connector other than an overpriced VW "special" wiper blade. Even the rear wiper cannot be replaced with an aftermarket brand. I searched several stores and couldn't find any that have them.

@MY-mp6bq 5 лет назад

I just did this myself. You just tilt the blade away from the wiper. It just comes off easily. In this video its done wrong

@nutz79ful 7 лет назад

if you don't know how to do this you shouldn't own a gti.

@Deutscheautoparts 7 лет назад

I frankly don't agree even a little bit. Everyone's experience varies and all enthusiast start somewhere. This video could be the very first attempt for a new enthusiast working on his or her car. I personally remember a time when I was really proud to have installed an intake on my new MK4 GTI. Paul
