Alfa Romeo 159 Wiper Motor Replacement Parts

The Alfa Romeo 159 was produced from 2005 to 2011 as a single generation with no major structural facelift that altered the wiper motor setup. For the front wiper motor, the key thing is confirming you have the same generation part, and all 159s fall within that one generation. Confirm the exact part number with your breaker against your registration to be sure, as minor running changes can occur within a production run.

Both a 2006 and a 2010 Alfa Romeo 159 sit within the same single generation (2005–2011), so the front wiper motor is generally compatible across those years. There are no known mid-life generation changes that would make the motor incompatible, but minor specification updates during the production run mean you should still confirm the part numbers match with your breaker before buying.

The front wiper motor is shared between the 159 Saloon and the 159 Sportwagon estate, as both body styles use the same windscreen and wiper system architecture. For the rear wiper motor, however, only the Sportwagon has a rear wiper, so a rear motor from a Saloon simply will not exist — you will need to source that from a Sportwagon breaker specifically.

Trim level does not affect wiper motor fitment on the Alfa Romeo 159 — the motor is the same whether your car is a Lusso, Ti, or Veloce. You may find cosmetic differences in the wiper arms or blades between trims, but the motor itself is interchangeable. Focus on matching the generation and front or rear position rather than worrying about trim designation.

Rear wiper motors from other Alfa Romeo models are not a straightforward swap, as mounting, connector, and shaft specifications can differ significantly between platforms. The 159 Sportwagon uses its own specific rear motor setup, and sourcing one directly from another 159 Sportwagon is the safest approach. Ask your breaker to cross-reference the part number against your registration before purchasing.

Give the breaker your full registration number so they can confirm the exact specification, and be clear whether you need the front or rear motor — the rear unit only applies to the Sportwagon. Mentioning the model year (anywhere in the 2005–2011 range) helps them narrow it down, though the single-generation production run means compatibility is generally consistent throughout. Always ask the breaker to verify the part number matches yours before agreeing to buy.
