2004 1.6 A3 Special Edition wiper linkage
daveyboy1967 replied to daveyboy1967's topic in Audi A3 (8P) Forum
Problem solved, to cut a long story short I bought a similar Audi motor/linkage assembly, swapped the motors over, and did some judicious grinding on one of the linkages to achieve the desired throw on the wiper arms. More of a faff than it should've been but I got there in the end. If anyone has the same problem finding this particular linkage (8P2955023G) feel free to drop me a line and I'll be happy to explain in more detail, and thanks for everyone who offered help. -

Hi Steve, and thanks for the help. Funnily enough I read your reply after trying to find the part I need and discovering that the part used on some Scirrocos of that era looks identical. My part number is 8P2955023G, the Scirocco part is only different in the 8P2 designation but looks the same so possibly this could be what I'm looking for. Dave -

Hi, and thanks for the reply. I've been trying online breakers for about a week now and no joy, I think mine is a bit of a "crossover/parts bin" model and every time I've found a breaker's description that seems to fit the bill I've sent my VIN no. to doublecheck and the parts don't match. It's getting very frustrating for something you'd think would be a pretty easy part to find. -
Hi all, I realise this is far from being the most exciting model in the lineup but I really love mine and I'm struggling to find a part. The front wiper linkage has disintegrated and I can't find one anywhere listed for this model. Does anyone have one available please or know if this part was used on any other models in the VAG group? Fingers crossed and thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me. Dave Edit: The motor itself is fine but I'd be equally happy with the complete unit if there's one out there.
