Car spare parts import duty and taxes is generally charged at 5%, but the calculations are bit more complex by adding the cost of goods + shipping cost + insurance cost. You can check here the exact calculation for your requirements: http://www.dutycalculator.com/country-guides/Import-duty-taxes-when-importing-into-United-Arab-Emirates/ your calculation: http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-duty-and-tax-calculation/saved_calculations/view_details/199894567 import duty and tax calculator: http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-duty-and-tax-calculation

you can buy directly from their website they charge 80-90 USD extra for international shipping to UAE. I don't know anyone here selling Arnott, secondly they do provide lifetime warranty for their products in US and EU, so I assume it will def last much longer than any OEM shit that cost fortune here. I advise same to my colleague who drive BMW X5 and since last three years he has not complained of ballons that he use to change every 15-18 months.

Hey guys, since all the forums are merged together. Lets talk about some genuine comparison. Everyone of us is aware about the competition between Audi and BMW. So please share your experiences and state your reason that why their choice is best and why (whether Audi or BMW)? Lets see who wins here.

Camaro is sexier but Mustang is capable. These both expressions are variable by an inch. So you decide whatever you like and on whatever you get the killer deal, as they both depreciate a lot and getting good bargain will save you some money in long run. I bought it mine overpriced and still regretting the price but not the choice.

For off-road capability you need to check the specs to understand the engine, horsepower and torque figures. Renault Duster has 2.0 liter engine, producing 135 horsepower and 195 Nm of Torque. Generally speaking these numbers are really a peanut for a good capable off-road 4x4, and I am sure it does not comes with LSD or diff lock that is must-have for off-road drives. It seems like a marketing stunt to me to fake it as a go anywhere car: http://takeme-anywhere.com/home probably for the sand or loose gravel tracks only, and not sand desert and never for dune climbing. Btw, you can also take honda civic, toyota corolla for same sand or loose gravel tracks, it's no biggy. I am following this thread to see the real owner "go anywhere" experience.....!

I agree with Futureshock in all what he said, very well written. if it is once or twice a month "normal" off-roading, without jumps & hard landings/ditches ... Etc.. then go with the cheap options, ironman, ARB OMEmu, rancho, entry fox.. They all do the job, will be a real improvement over stock always.. Actually it improves on road handling also if you chose the kit to match your style.. Go to radlfo/King/icon if you are serious off-roader & enjoy going crazy 🌹

Hi Edie All most all of drifting cars are rear wheel drive so in cornering the centrifugal force due to the high torque force the car to spin in a circle and to avoid that steering to other direction would prevent that. before 8 years I had a BMW E36 325i American Specs (it comes with GM 4L40 automatic transmission used in Chevrolet Lumina and Cadillac with 4 speed and 2 valve bodies!) and it was very easy to over steer it or under steer it in every corner since it was not equipped with traction control even in low speed as I experienced in U turns!! while drifting in all wheel drive is a harder job to do and required a higher driving skill and training. drifting is a dangerous to do and forbidden in public road use while knowing it would save lives to use it in emergency like driving in wet roads and sandy roads to avoid other drivers mistakes or road surprises. Drive safely !!

This is a strange problem, but we will do our best to figure it out. The first thing to do is to apply the brakes very lightly when you hear the sound. You only need to bring the pads into contact with the disc. If the sound goes away when you do this, it means that the pads don't fit into the calllipers properly, and that normal vibrations in the vehicle are causing them to "bounce" around in the callipers. This means that you have to have the brakes inspected to see if all the anti-rattle plates are in place, or that nothing is obviously out of place. It is likely that the ABS system is registering this as a fault, which is why the light comes on. However, you need to have a proper OBD II diagnostic check performed to see if there is not some other problem that could cause the ABS, or other system to activate the brakes at the speeds you mention. It could also happen that the ABS is deactivating itself due to a problem it is registering, which is why the light stays on until you turn off the engine. The best advice I can offer you with the amount of information available is to have a diagnostic check done before you do anything such as replacing pads and discs. You may not need to do this, since the problem may not be with the discs and pads- it could be in the ABS (or other) systems.

Hi Arran, The problem you describe is a known issue on Ford Edge models, and it is caused by the failure of sensors inside the transmission. It can be any one of three sensors- the transmission speed sensor, the turbine sensor, the pressure sensor, or all three, so it would be wise to have all three sensors replaced. It is strange that the dealer would tell you to merely switch the engine off and on again. While this resets the sensors and the circuits they control, Ford has issues a TSB about this issue, and the dealer should have known better, since this problem is a dangerous condition to have on any car.

I would like to compare Audi A4 and BMW 3-series. I have driven both thecars, but personally i like BMW 3-series. They technology, horsepower and the luxury factors involved in BMW 3-series is way smoother and ahead than Audi A4. Audi A4 seems to be in common line these days. Everyone is buying Audi A4 if their choice is Audi. Its like the only model which was selling the most at one time. But i dont htink it makes it a better choice than any models of BMW 3-series. What i noticed is, Audi A4 is still under the basic category coming up with starter features but their is nothing that you can define luxury in it. Also, the BMW 3 series comes up with 6-cylinder which by the way is NOT in A4. You have to jumo to S4 for that. So summing up, BMW 3-series is a better choice than Audi.
