Wipers

I want to replace my Palio Stile wipers?

Are the ones available with TASS the best or are there any other brands that available in after-market. I changed over to Bosch wipers. Paid 350 Rs and am pretty happy with them. The performance is better than OE. I guess you would get them in any good auto parts dealer.
 
U can replace wiper arm with BOSCH. That will cost approx. Kamesh go for bosch, superb. mines in 2nd season and superb efficiencey. I  think all boscch aftermarket and OEm stuff is superb. the dealer is in lodhi road the market behind sai baba mandir Ganpati Automotive Shop No.-78, Meharchand Market Lodhi Road, New Delhi
 
Do these BOSCH wipers come in standard size and fittment or will I have to search for Stile specific?
 
Wiper blades are specific to car models, they vary in size. The fitment system also will be different from car to car.

As Ravveendra mentioned, just ask for Palio compatible Bosch wipers.I don't know the part number though

Thanks for all the details Shubhro, will check with him on availability for my Stile. What do you think will he have a pair in stock?

Do the wiper blades for Retro and Stile version share the same part number??

As Ravveendra mentioned, just ask for Palio compatible Bosch wipers.I don't know the part number though
 
You can check this thread from T-BHP for Bosch Wiper details. Most of the cars are listed.

The wipers for retro and new palio stile are different, though the difference is very small but it will not work the best way it is supposed to. It will be a Jugaad sort of thing to do. I got the wipers of my minty changed @ 2 months back, they are of bosch, original pack and cost me @ Rs. 329 with bill etc. I am waiting for the rear wiper from the dealer. yes, as many have said bosch are much more better than the OEM syndicate make wipers. 

A new thing I tried in rains this year was adding only 2 drops of dish washer to the windshield washer water. I used prill / pril and it worked magic for me, specially on the rear windshield, where it gathers more dust and mud particals. caution - add only a drop or 2 of the dish washer liquid in the full windshield wash container as these are very concentrated chemical agents and may harm the rubber / plastic parts on the windshield / rubber of wipers, if used freely. Also do not use these on the windshield to clean it directly.any droplets not cleared from the bumper may harm the paint of your loved palio. Adding these dish washers will not make a big foam on the windshield but will clean it effectively. In non-rainy days, I use the most mild / soft / baby shampoo 4-5 drops per full container and that also works good.
 
I will be at BOSCH dealer in an hours time from now and will make sure that I get wipers for Stile version and not for Retro version, thanks for the clarification.

Difficulty in removing the key from the driver's side door

When the beast is in idle position, it puts up a shame on the Palio but one push on the throttle pedal and you just forget everything...Zip Zap Zooooooom :)
fhir kya kava kava..only Waka Waka!! :)) LOL

Try to get a duplicate key. You can get it done by any person who is doing duplicating with proper equipment.

I face the same problem, but with the lock on the co-driver's side.

And it started recently? And does it seem to be a problem with the coastal guys (like us Mumbai folks?). Because in Mumbai there's very high level of corrosion.

Regarding the noises from the dash, it could be because of loosening. Perhaps, the dash being opened for some work earlier?

Thank God, by car is driving wonderfully, without any issues. Empty roads tempt me to speed on, but I'm learning to control the urge ;)

Try a syringe of vinegar.Not the whole syringeful just a few drops, wait for an hour and use the syringe to apply a 50:50 mix of any oil with
kerosene.Again a couple of drops.
