How do I change my windscreen wipers?? (2016 RR Sport)

I can't for the life of me work out how to remove the old wipers. The manual offers no information on replacing wipers so any advice would be appreciated.

I found this if it helps? Seems pretty straight forward once you know how!

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

Thanks, but my wipers aren't like these (those are the same as the ones my Evoque had which I changed a few times).

Or could anyone point me to the page in the manual that explains it? I can't find it anywhere.

Hi,

IIRC the first trick is to park the wipers in Winter mode.

This parks the wipers above the bonnet so you can fold the arms clear of the screen.

Winter mode is accessible / set through the dashboard menus.

Remember to set them back to normal afterwards.

The trick is to but the replacements in Halfrauds (The Bosch Aero blades are good!) and they fit them for free!!!

Sorry to be off topic but had a tyre repaired in Halfrauds once. Had to run into the workshop before they did some damage, no idea that it had air suspension and no idea what to do when I told them it had.

When I showed them how to raise the suspension and open the tailgate they said 'well you learn something every day' ...so had I
