2022 BMW 3 Series
Wiper Blade Size

The 2022 BMW 3 Series uses 24"" and 18"" front wiper blades, with no rear wiper on this model. The blades mount on PTB (push-tab button) arms. This is a standard configuration typical of mid-size sedans from this era.

The 2019–2025 BMW 3 Series all use the same wiper blade sizes, so any blade that fits the 2022 model will also fit these years.

PTB Installation Guide

Car driving in rain with wiper blades active
PTB Arms Difficulty: Easy ~5 minutes

PTB (Push-Tab Button) arms use a small plastic tab to lock the blade in place. Common on many 2010+ American and Asian vehicles, they require pressing a button to release the old blade. Not all universal blades include a PTB adapter — check the packaging before purchasing.

  1. 1 Lift the wiper arm away from the windshield until it stays upright.
  2. 2 Locate the push-tab button on the center of the blade where it connects to the arm.
  3. 3 Press and hold the push-tab button, then slide the old blade away from the arm.
  4. 4 Slide the new 24"" driver-side blade onto the arm pin until the tab clicks and locks.
  5. 5 Tug the blade gently to confirm it is secure, then lower the arm.
  6. 6 Repeat on the passenger side with the 18"" blade.
  7. 7 Spray washer fluid and cycle the wipers to verify smooth, streak-free operation.

Tips

• PTB (push-tab button) arms are common on 2010+ vehicles. Not all universal blades include a PTB adapter — check the packaging.

• If the tab feels stuck, try pressing it from a slightly different angle. Forcing it can break the plastic clip.

• Some PTB blades are side-specific — verify the adapter orientation matches the arm.

Rear Wiper

The 2022 BMW 3 Series does not have a rear wiper blade. This is common for sedans and coupes. If your vehicle was originally equipped with a rear wiper and it has been removed, see our rear wiper delete guide for cap and plug options.
