Using brand new wiper blades in the rain is so satisfying—not to mention how important good wipers are for safe driving!
Replacing your
Volvo XC90
windshield wipers is as simple as pressing a button, pulling off the old blade, and clicking the new one into place.
You will notice that your
Volvo
wiper blades are different lengths. Make sure that you are putting the longest one on your driver-side wiper arm. Here are the steps you will need to follow:
  • First, turn on your car and run your wipers. Turn your car off with the wipers about halfway up the windshield.
  • Press the button on the wiper blade mounting and pull the old blade straight out, parallel with the wiper arm.
  • Slide in the new blade until you hear it click into place.
  • Fold the wiper arm back towards the windshield and test your wipers to make sure they are securely in place.
Once your wipers are back in action and you are ready to hit the road, it might be a great time to have
