Hi All, I'm New to the forum and looking for advice, my A4 Tdi Avant has 180k  on sorting my front wipers, they had gone very slow so my local mechanic removed the linkages and re oiled them up, worked great for a month and now they have returned to slow mode, I'd like to bite the bullet and replace the whole lot,  motor and linkages but can't seem to find anyone able to offer these parts new, obviously getting used parts potentially offers the same issues, can anyone advise if any other Audi model wipers fit? or any advice? MOT due January!

One from a Passat or Skoda Octavia might work.

Thanks Steve, it might, but I can't go this route on a hope and a prayer, I'd need someone to say ' I had the same problem and found out that 'xyz' part for xyz car fitted perfectly' I suppose I'm hoping for too much.
