Windshield wiper replacements

[bobgollihur]

Can anyone point me to alternative windshield wiper replacements for my '04 Cayenne? I get nasty scraping noises more quickly than you'd expect. I've stepped up the frequency of RainX applications and even bought a pack of wiper rejuvenator wipes to compensate. It's not overuse/abuse, my '04 has just over 30K miles on it; I've reported it to my dealer twice.

I found one non-Porsche OEM set on a site a few weeks ago, ordered them, but the order was later cancelled without explanation.

Alternatives/suggestions appreciated, it's just an annoyance. I'd pay the same price as OEM Porsche if only the **** things would last longer.

I suggest just getting an original set again--mine used to make noise, i bought a new set and 20,000 miles later i just bought another set to replace. I dont think thats so bad--it didnt start making noise however one wasnt wiping to perfection and i have OCD so...i just got another set.

$40 for the set. not a bad deal considering what some dealers charge.
