Wiper blades
Anyone know the right size wiper blades for the front screen of a 2010 XF supercharged? (Think the same on all XF models)
Lots of different views online depending on the site. Many say 22 and 19inch. But looking back when I last purchased it was 23 and 19...
And one site says 24 and 18
I read the owners manual which says v impt to use the right size. But doesn't seem to have that important info!!

A quick Google shows me that the driver side takes a 22" and the passenger side has a 19". Strange how the location of the search has different findings.
So, I went to the garage and I found a 24" blade, went to both the 2010 and 2014 XF models and sure enough the 24" blade will fit the driver's side comfortably. Needless to say, it is coming up to Spring replacement and I'll be trying the 24" on the diver's side this run.
As a side note; both cars when purchased had the 22" blade installed on the driver's side and I maintained the sizes ever since.

Well - 24 and 19 fit fine. Wipes close to edge of screen which is great. And no issues
I ordered the RainX Latitude. Fitted them today. The actual fit into the wiper arm isn't as clean/neat as the Valeo ones I had before. But performance is great.

Valeo are good but I normally use the Bosch twin blade which are considerably cheaper & last a good year. One thing I do though, is clean the screen with spirit vinegar every 3 months or so, which takes off the 'coating' left from the blades & really reduces smearing on the return stroke.
