No two wiper motors are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
The Touran has run across two main UK generations: the first generation (Mk1) covered 2003 to 2015, with a facelift in 2010, and the second generation (Mk2) ran from 2015 onwards. Within each generation, front and rear wiper motors are generally consistent, but you should always confirm with the breaker using your exact registration before buying used.
Both of those years sit within the Mk1 generation, though 2009 is pre-facelift and 2012 is post-facelift (the facelift came in 2010). Front and rear wiper motors often carry across the Mk1 facelift boundary, but whether the specific motor from a 2009 car is a direct swap for your 2012 is worth confirming with the breaker against your registration, as minor updates can affect connectors or mounting.
These two cars sit in different generations — the 2013 is a Mk1 and the 2016 is a Mk2 — so fitment across that boundary is not guaranteed. You should route this question directly to the breaker with both registrations, as generation changes typically bring different motor designs, wiring, and fixings.
Trim level does not affect wiper motor fitment on the Touran; SE, SE Family, Highline, and other trim variants all use the same wiper motor within a given generation. The breaker may supply a motor pulled from any trim and it will be the same mechanical part, though you should still confirm front versus rear and the generation matches your car.
Yes — front and rear wiper motors are completely different parts and are not interchangeable, so always make clear to the breaker which one you need. The front motor is mounted in the scuttle area and drives both NS and OS blades via a linkage, while the rear motor sits in the tailgate and is a separate, smaller unit.
It is possible that some VW Group models sharing the Touran's platform and generation use compatible wiper motors, but cross-model compatibility depends on exact motor specification, connector type, and mounting points rather than just shared architecture. This is something to discuss directly with the breaker, quoting your registration, as they can check specific part numbers before confirming a match.
