  1. Today I changed the wiper blades on my S-Type. At first it seems complicated as you cannot pull the wiper arms past the bonnet, leaving you in that head scratching situation. But on the wiper blade mount there is a small clip underneath which you push upwards as hard as you can and then slide the blade off... with a small wiggle it will come off the arm. Take off the hose from the washer jet and then when the blade is free you need to take the centre mount clip off (quite hard to get the plastic clip off, use a big headed screw driver to prise it off, but be careful not to break) which as the washer jet attached to it and apply to new blade. I put 10" and 12" PIAA blades on mine... works a treat PIAA blades are awesome as they are silicone, i have a few sets in my garage if anyone wants to buy a set.

  22. if the pads touch the disks then they can get really hot, so when doing motorway driving they will be hot. go and take a motorway run and then stop and put your hands near the wheel hub (not on the disks) and if they glow warm then they are probably touching slightly. Or it could have done that a while back They cannot warp without the heat so I would think its all down to the calipers or pads Don't feel too disallusioned by this.. i had quite a few Lexus before and they also had the same problems which was all down to the caliper.
