OK, let's try and compile where B8 A4 owners can get the Euro-only Bosch A297S Aerotwins which, in my experience through several snow storms and temps down to 0 degrees F, work really, really well. Much, much better than the sucky blades Audi puts on our A4's that become useless in snowy/icy/freezing wet driving conditions.

Bosch lists these as the Aerotwin A297S. You get two in the package - one for the driver side and one for the passenger. So you only need to order 1 x A297S set. I believe the Bosch part number for the A297S is 3397007297 so you should be able to find them that way (someone should double check this).

let's try and keep this thread limited to sources and put experiences over in the original thread. thanks!

Are they an easy snap in replacement like the OEM blades?

Avant4Adam

Yes. Same fitting.

The Amazon web site says they do NOT fit 2011 A4. Nor do they fit the 2010, but they DO fit the 2009. Since all these models are B8, are they wrong? Or did Audi change the fittings for 2010 and 2011?

Avant4Adam

According to Bosch's cut sheet for their wipers (downloadable from their Europe website), they list these for B8's from 11.07 forward.

I believe someone in the original thread put them on their 2010 if you go look for that post.

This isn't how I found out where to get the blades, but it yields the same result for me. The closest Bosch Service Center to me is where I ordered and picked up the blades. Thought I'd post this in case there are more wiper blades floating around the Bosch Network than in those places taking orders online.

I have them on my 2010. They fit in just like the OEM ones. No hassles.

Thanks for the confirmation guys! Placed my order with Amazon right before they ran out of stock again.

There is no stock at Amazon right now but pre-order page is back up. I placed an order, hopefully it wouldn't take too long.
