Anyone know how to remove the windshield wiper blades on a 2015 F-Type? I want to replace mine - I found replacements at;
https://www.carpartsdiscount.com/win...html?3594=2132
But I can't figure out how to remove them.
Thanx for any info....

Yep, a few months ago I couldn't figure out how to do it so I asked the "service advisor" at the local JLR dealership and he showed me exactly as explained above. I got home, tried it and it works, takes 30 seconds to renew the wiper blade.

There was a provider that would take out a topix subscription and compile the entirety of the shop instructions relevant to a specific VIN into a single pdf that is extremely well indexed. In my case, it was about 14,000 pages. Unfortunately, that provider gave up on doing the Jags, probably because of the enormity of the compilation task. If you wanted to, you could take out a 1 week or 1 month subscription to download all the documents from topix, and then compile the sections (or not) at your leisure.

The Mitchell site is like what you are describing. I did take out a subscription and have downloaded hundreds of pages so far. The problem is it goes deeply into repair and maintenance - I could rebuild the engine with this info. But it doesn't show things like how to replace headlights, replace wipers, replace air filters, etc.
Chilton or Haynes offer books for cars like a 1965 Gogomobile but don't offer books for Jags - I guess they're to sophisticated for them.

I got OEM replacements last fall. As I knew they stayed down and didn't do anything crazy at 130MPH+ (don't ask me how I know), I stuck with the OEMs.
I got them here, at Unhingd's suggestion. Timely, reasonably priced, etc. I don't have the part numbers handy.

Appreciate the info. I bought some wipers at Costco today, "Michelin" ("...all i know is it's French"). They fit fine, we'll see how they last, they fit and went on easily, "clicked" in place.

Thanks, That's good to read. i was at Costco and bought them on a whim because i needed them. They were only $8.99 each. These are "Guardian All Season." (i had no idea they are now season rating wind shield wiper blades).

Good call. Those are indeed for left-hand drive, and what I ordered a couple of years ago, as mentioned above.
