  1. Looks like we are only going one way, Bosch, now 4-0. Cheers, John
  2. Joe, Yes my car is a facelift and I am making certain that the washer jets are affixed to the replacement blades. I have looked and it does seem as if it is going to be a fiddly job fitting the replacements. 3-0 to Bosch now then. Best Wishes , John
  3. For a long life and easier way to protect the battery is to invest in a CTEK charger/conditioner. They are so very convenient to just keep the battery charged and in good condition. Best Wishes , John
  4. Thanks Peter, that is 2 - 0 to Bosch at the moment then Regards, John
  5. Julie, Many thanks. Best Wishes, John
  6. I have not had to buy replacement wiper blades for many, many years. Now find myself having to replace both of my wiper blades. Cannot remember what make I used to buy and would appreciate suggestions as to what you consider to be the better manufacture of said items. I would sooner pay a little more for something that will last and be of better quality as I firmly believe in "you only get what you pay for." Best Wishes, John
  7. David, Many thanks for your best wishes and the very same to you and yours. Hope you get the lights sorted soon. Regards, John
  8. David Welcome, I am a young 72 years. As regards your headlights; Are you sure they are LED`s, as I would expect LED`s to be brighter than Halogen. I very recently posted an article in "Non Jaguar" section regarding headlights and the swopping of bulb types and still being legal. My S Type had what I thought was poor headlights and I was considering changing to LED`s , which incidentally would have not been road legal. It would however seem that not everyone is concerned about that. Anyway, more to the point and may be helping you with your lack of headlight power. With my S Type I eventually found that my poor lighting was mainly due to the fact that the headlights were not adjusted properly for beam level. Having put that right it made my headlights very good. I also fitted RING Xenon 200 bulbs (readily available from Ebay and not expensive for Halogen) to the dipped beam for improved performance. They are Halogen and therefore legal for the S Type. I do not actually know for sure what genre of headlamp bulbs are fitted to your XF, but they should be readily identifiable. If you read the article I posted you will find a well known bulb supplier "link" on there and they are very very helpful with providing assistance in choice of bulbs and giving you information on what your car will need in the way of bulbs. I actually purchased my bulbs direct from them on line. Hope this may assist a little. Best Wishes and Regards, John
