Thanks but had checked this already before posting and it doesn't mention the size in the manual as far as I could see, only how to clean, install etc.

Anyway they are 21-19 front and 14 rear.

Here is a sample listing for mytvs wipers and a table on that page that gives sizes for most cars

Thanks, ordered.

20's fit fine on both sides but will get a set of 21/19 too and see how the coverage area is as well. Will report back in a day or 2.

No worries about that, the windshield size hasn't significantly changed between 2016-19 so you can take it from me after a lakh + km and multiple wiper blades 19-21-14 works just fine. You can also fit 20-20, the coverage area isn't as optimal but should still be OK.

The Kenya Police has added 100 units of the Mahindra Scorpio Single-Cab Pik-Up SUV in its fleet.

The SUV supplied to the Kenya Police is the based on the current-generation Mahindra Scorpio. Now speaking about design, it gets a bold radiator grille along with dual-beam headlights and integrated LED daytime running lights. The front bumper gets a chunky and muscular appearance with two neatly positioned rectangular fog lamps at both ends.

Hi Everyone, a few questions for the Scorpio experts here please, for my 2016 S10 Auto 2WD:

1) I noticed a weird issue with the fuel level gauge. After filling up (the tank already had half), it took a good 15 mins for the gauge to show the new level. It crept up very slowly, maybe one bar every 5 mins. I have noticed that from new the tank never quite goes up the max level even after a complete fill up, it is always one level lower. I guess the issue is with the sensor/float in the fuel tank. Anyone faced this issue or any thoughts on this?

2) The fuel lid always requires some force to close, sometimes takes 2 or 3 times to close. It opens fine. Anyone faced this issue? Hope it doesn't require a new actuator and is an easy fix.

3) Is the fuel tank screw on cap normally attached to the inside of the fuel lid? I noticed that mine is not attached now, but can't remember if it was attached before. Maybe just a new cap required but how exactly does it attach?

---- Ironically, the above 3 all related to fuel! lol: ----

4) The silver trim on the steering wheel has started to chip off. Tried searching on Boomdo for this but unable to find the exact part. Anyone know what it is or how I could locate it? If not will save it for when I go for my next service in a couple thousand KM's.

5) I have not changed the tyres in 6 years since buying the car new. Only done 36k KM but thinking I should change them soon. Confused between Michelin Primacy SUV, Pirelli Scorpion and Yokohama Geloander (not sure A/T or SUV?). My driving is 95% city and highway, little to no offroading. Thoughts?

Thanks everyone, loving the car as we near 6 years. Only done 36k KM as it was unused for almost 2 years during the pandemic. But doing more and more road trips and loving its reliability, go anywhere capability and the e-a-s-y to drive auto!

Ans. 3: My Scorpio's (2010) fuel tank cap is not attached to the inside of the fuel tank lid.

Ans. 4: Try with these Mahindra Genuine Spares outlets:

Sushil Automobiles (Shivajinagar, near Pune Municipal Corporation): https://goo.gl/maps/azg9das1xreJFy4T7

Om Sai Motor Parts (PCMC): https://goo.gl/maps/96haMd3hvoy6H7V16

Ans. 5: I've been using Yokohama Geolander for the past 4 years, though haven't clocked many kms on them. They are a good choice for the Scorpio, but I've heard there was quite a shortage of new tyres in the market. Don't know if the situation is better now.

I've used Michelin Primacy SUV in my previous Scorpio and now in my Endeavour. Fantastic tyres, even if quite expensive. Rotate Align Balance every 5k km and they'll last you for very long indeed, and are very stable on fast or twisty highway trips.
