Did they change the wiper design for 2019? i would like to get another Mazda CX5 but I won't until they change wiper design.
I have a 2017 mazda cx5 and the car has been absolutely reliable and a great pleasure to drive, except on one point. The wipers really suck. The driver side wiper jumps, skips and sticks. It has been terrible during the November rain. I tried washing the windscreen with window washer, applying silicon to wiper blade and many other things without any improvement.
Bosch envision is not available in Europe. Has any one European replacement for these wipers?
Has anyone tired the wiper tech wipers?
I'll reply to my own question regarding European model of Bosch wiper for cx5 from 2017 to present. It is called Bosch aerotwin 398s a packet containing two front wipers for CX5 second generation. Just ordered the pair for 33 Euros.
Received it today (29th Nov.) and installed it. Dead easy to change from original to Bosch ones. Just have to press a button on the top of the wiper and pull it out. Then insert the new ones (the driver side wiper is longer than the other). They click in to place. The Bosch wipers are sturdier, thicker and very quiet. No hopping or juddering.

No adapter needed. It just slides in to the arm and clicks in to place!
Here are the imprinted numbers on the original Mazda CX- 5 ((European "vision" model from 2017, the new Mazda Cx-5 two) wipers that I took out. look at your, if they are the same than you have the same original wipers.

These are the easiest wipers to remove and re install. Just press that black button and pull them out, take a photo and re insert them . Check the numbers on the photo and post them here. Done! I am just tempting you guys to the definitive answer on the question of USA supplied CX-5 having the same wiper blade as us here or not.Go for it!![]()
Stopped by my Mazda dealer and took a picture of wiper hook-up on a 2019 CX-5. Yep, it’s the same.

I just sent Bosch an email asking if there is an equivalent product available here in the states.
