Description
This wiper linkage covers the VW Bora (2006-2010) and replaces OE 1J1955603B. Same footprint as the original part, with the pivot design reworked where the factory unit tends to fail.
On a high-mileage vehicle the linkage outlives the bushings inside it. Once a pivot stiffens, every sweep pulls harder on the motor, and the wiper arm timing drifts out of position.

Replaces OE number: 1J1955603B. If the number on your old linkage matches, this is the correct replacement.
Why the original part fails
Uneven wiping, a blade that lags on one side, or a knock on every pass usually traces back to worn pivots rather than the motor. If the linkage is left in place, the extra load is passed on to the motor and gearbox.
- POM bushings, DuPont grade — The original soft bushings wear oval and let the pivot move off-centre. A harder, dimensionally stable bushing keeps the clearance the linkage was designed with.
- Brass bearings at the pivot pins — Carries the load at the point where the factory part scores, so service life is not limited by a single wear surface.
- Aluminium pivot arms — Adds stiffness to the linkage under load — this is what stops the assembly flexing and skipping.
- Galvanised and coated steel — Water from the windscreen drains straight over this area. Coated rods and brackets resist rust and seizing in wet climates.
- Pre-greased on assembly — The unit goes in ready to run, so there is no extra greasing step during fitting.
