    Hi @Ishak i followed wrong location by mistake and i need 38 minutes to reach the location 🤦‍♂️ is there a way to give me the next location you will stop on or should i go back home ?
  4. Ahh heres the post i was thinking of (gotta scroll back to page 1, then scroll down) Also another good post from @Frederic here.. get gemini to give you the run down on angles and clearance etc.
  5. hp/tonne vs hp/ton. so it will be around 89 hp/ton. still in the Borderline OK.
  6. Hey Stephan, In the end it makes no great difference and is largely just a question of convenience. If you plan to offroad regularly (say once a week on average), then having a fixed onboard compressor is useful and is one less thing to pack and remember. If you want to avoid making any changes to your car, or you’re happy to pack your equipment each time you go off-roading, a portable unit is a great option. I went for a fixed installation onboard compressor in my Jeep as I take it out regularly enough to benefit from the saving of time and space taken up in the car.
  7. Good to see you back here mate. A quick google gives me the following info,.. 1,970kg @ around 160HP from the 2,.7 litre engine. Power to weight ratio of 81 which puts it just in the 'Borderline OK for dunes' category from @Gauravs previous spreadsheet. Its around the same weight, but around 70hp less than the previous gen FJ. Of course in the end it comes down to the driver
  8. Hello Frederic, absolutely great piece of writing. Very useful. I am wondering about the best option between a compressor mounted in the car (for example under the passenger seat - Offroad Zone does that with an ARB), or a compressor that one needs to plug to the battery each time it is needed. There is an obvious difference in price... But what is the most practiced here? Is it inconvenient to open the hood, plug to the battery each time needed? Thanks in advance for you view on that. Stephan
  9. Hello lads, Been a long time since I’ve been here (about to change soon). I’m looking to upgrade from the mighty Jimny to the new FJ. Its no OG FJ in any way shape or form but would be cool to know the experts thoughts. ✌️

    I am eager to learn this new environment !

    Welcome to the club @Stephan Guglieri! The main advantage from driving in sand is that it's less messy compared with mud and softer than rocks as well 😁! I am sure you will enjoy. It's all about momentum and flotation. See you soon in the sand!

    hi Looper, My car is a Baic BJ40C, black colour, mounted K03 285/70/17 - 4H - 4L - diff lock front and back Experience: - good level in mud / rocks - extremely limited experience in soft sand. - 2 times out in the desert (Al Qudra), and still adapting to my new car. Quite a change, in my country I used rather to drive turbo-diesels, or more powerfull fuel models. I Confirm having read all and having all equipment mentionned. Let me know if needed more info.

    See you guys tonight at 20:00, fuelled up and ready to go! @Piotr. @Lukas Wii dont forget your chair (and coffee!)

  19. This sounds indeed extremely similar to the previous issue which turned out to be the solenoid valves. Try the following 1. Park the car on a lonely piece of straight road. Engage Neutral. 2. Move your 4x4 lever to 4H and wait till the dash stops blinking. 3. Engage D and drive 100-200m in a straight line and see if the noise is still there.

    @Stephan Guglieri welcome to Carnity. As this will your first club drive, kindly provide us with the following: Vehicle make, model, year and colour Previous off-road experience (if any) Confirmation that your vehicle has front and rear recovery points (tow hooks/eyelets) Confirmation that you have: Programmable two-way radio Safety flag Tyre pressure gauge Tyre deflator Air compressor 🎥 Mandatory: Watch the Newbie Video Briefing before attending your first drive
  21. Hi! I think I'm experiencing the same issue, but unfortunately the video you posted with the sound is no longer available. I've also made a video of my own, and I'd like to understand whether it's the same issue. My sound follows the same pattern: it gets louder when decelerating and stops when I press the brake all the way down. In other posts it's described as a grinding noise, but mine sounds more like a whirring noise. I've also taken the car to several garages, they changed a lot of thing, but they couldn't solve it. In the first few months it happened very rarely, but now it happens almost every other day, so I'm a bit worried..

    safe travels! see you next week!
