Hey guys! First time poster looking for some advice regarding windscreen mark issues! A little over a year ago I was fortunate to pick up my first Audi; A low mileage 2016 A3 Sportback with S line trim. It’s been my pride and joy during commutes to and from work, however I can’t help but question the quality of the glass used on the front windscreen. Over the last couple of months I’ve replaced the front wiper blades twice after noticing a number of hairline marks developing on the drivers side. In recent weeks these have started to form into larger arcs which has left me stumped. All parts are genuine and I wash my car religiously / keep it covered over night. So I’m baffled to how passing dirt can cause this much damage. It’s now to the point that I clean both wiper blades before I jump in the car for even the shortest drives. After dropping the car off at my local Audi dealership for a review they’ve assured me there aren’t any faults with the newly replaced blades, wiper arms or windscreen (but still charged me for a fresh pair of blades 😔) Has anyone experienced anything similar to this? Am I focussing too much on my windscreen or is there something genuinely flawed here? Any thoughts, fixes or recommendations would really be appreciated.

Hi All Newbie A3 owner! Just bought an 04 plate 8P1 and everything is great apart from the wipers. When you turn them on they can work normally for a while then go absolutely mental fast or really slow. The offside one even clatters past the edge of the windscreen. Sometimes they just go mad straight away. Thinking it's probably the wiper motor as the control circuit is integral from what ive read. Just put it on here in case anybody else has come across this and has an answer? Any help greatly appreciated :-)
