Renault Captur Wiper Blade Size & Fitting Guide (2020-2024)
Wiper Blade Sizes
Front blade lengths and arm fitting for the Renault Captur, taken from the Bosch and Valeo entries in the TecDoc-derived parts catalogue. Catalogues publish a front set as two lengths and do not state which blade belongs on the driver’s arm of a right-hand-drive car, so this table labels the blades by length rather than by side. Measure the blade you are replacing, or check both arms, before you order.
| Position | Blade length | Arm fitting |
|---|---|---|
| Front pair | Disputed — Bosch 700 mm / 27.6 in + 340 mm / 13.4 in; Valeo 680 mm / 26.8 in + 350 mm / 13.8 in. Corroborated on both sides (Maxgear 39-0799 = 700/340, Maxgear 39-1047 = 680/350, Ridex Plus 298W0345P = 700/350). | Top Lock / push-button |
| Rear | 260 mm / 10.2 in | Vehicle-specific rear fit |

What Fitting Type?
Catalogue fitting for the Renault Captur: Bosch ‘Top Lock’ (Renault/Nissan top-lock push-fit) — not a 9×3/9×4 hook
Adapter warning. The Bosch set listed for this car is an Aerotwin Original (A-prefix). Aerotwin Originals ship with a single moulded, vehicle-specific adapter — they are not multi-fit and will not clip onto a different arm type. Bosch’s multi-fit products are the Aerotwin Retrofit (AR-prefix) and Aerotwin Plus (AP-prefix) ranges.
Fit blades in pairs. Both front blades age at the same rate, so replacing only the streaking one usually means doing the other within weeks.
Recommended Wiper Blades
Bosch A404S
A404S (3397014404) 700/340 — A-series Original, one moulded Top-Lock adapter. Rear H261 (260).
Rear blade
260 mm / 10.2 in Rear blades are usually a moulded, vehicle-specific fit rather than a universal hook — match the part number, not just the length.
How to Replace Wiper Blades
Changing the front blades on the Renault Captur takes a few minutes and needs no tools.
- Lift the arm away from the glass until it locks upright, and lay a folded cloth on the screen in case it drops.
- Release the old blade. Press the release tab on the top of the connector and pull the blade square off the arm — it unclips rather than sliding.
- Compare old and new side by side before fitting — same length, same connector. If the adapter does not match, stop; forcing it damages the arm.
- Fit the new blade until the catch clicks home, then tug it gently to confirm it is locked.
- Lower the arm back to the glass by hand. Repeat on the other side, then test with plenty of washer fluid on a wet screen.
Never let a bare arm snap back onto the glass — a windscreen chipped that way is not covered by the blade warranty.
When to Replace Your Wipers
Wiper rubber hardens with UV and heat rather than with mileage, so a set on a car that is parked outside will usually be finished in about 12 months whatever the distance covered. Replace them when you see any of the following:
- Streaks or a haze left behind on the return sweep
- Juddering or chattering across the glass
- Missed strips of screen, especially at the top of the sweep
- Splits, curling or a shiny, glazed edge on the rubber
- Squealing that does not clear with a wash and a wipe of the rubber
Clean the rubber with a damp cloth every few weeks and clear leaves and grit from the base of the screen; both add months to a set. A blade that still streaks after cleaning is worn, not dirty.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a Renault Captur need?
Sources disagree for the Renault Captur. Disputed — Bosch 700 mm / 27.6 in + 340 mm / 13.4 in; Valeo 680 mm / 26.8 in + 350 mm / 13.8 in. Corroborated on both sides (Maxgear 39-0799 = 700/340, Maxgear 39-1047 = 680/350, Ridex Plus 298W0345P = 700/350). Because the figures conflict, measure the blades on your own car before ordering.
What fitting type do Renault Captur wipers use?
The Renault Captur is catalogued as: Bosch ‘Top Lock’ (Renault/Nissan top-lock push-fit) — not a 9×3/9×4 hook Note that Bosch Aerotwin Original (A-prefix) sets carry one moulded, vehicle-specific adapter and are not multi-fit.
What rear wiper blade does a Renault Captur take?
Rear blade for the Renault Captur: 260 mm / 10.2 in Rear blades are normally a moulded vehicle-specific fit, so match the part number rather than the length alone.
How often should I replace Renault Captur wiper blades?
About once a year for most UK cars. Wiper rubber degrades with UV, heat and grit rather than with mileage, so a car parked outside will need blades sooner than the distance covered suggests. Replace them as soon as they streak, judder or miss part of the sweep after cleaning.

How we check fitment for this guide
We cross-reference fitment figures against manufacturer specifications and OE-supplier catalogue data where available, and matched to the standard codes that actually govern fit — battery type/group sizes, wiper lengths and fitting types, bulb fitment codes, tyre size markings, and oil specifications. We work by make, model, year, engine, and build date, because a single model can take different parts across its life. Where the right part depends on your exact vehicle, we tell you to confirm by registration or VIN. More on our method →
