BMW Road Sharjah Car Parts is probably the biggest auto parts market in Asia, at least that's what I have been told from my old mechnic who lives behind just behind the BMW road. After so many years I spend in Ajman, Dubai and Sharjah I still meet people asking me "Where is Sharjah BMW Road Spare Parts" as they can't really find it on google maps or any navigation system anymore. Just a little background that BMW road named after the AGMC showroom used to be there some 20 years ago and now that showroom moved from Sharjah Industrial Area 1 to Sharjah Industrial Area 12, but name has been living so strong that everyone expect you to remember and know that place automatically. Little comic but this shows that this name has some magic for all car parts dealer and auto workshop in that area and they happily using it since two decades. Just for new people reference you can find almost any car brand new spare parts in Sharjah BMW road and just behind that road you have tons of low cost workshop where you can get your spare part fixed too. Many spare part shops in bmw road even hand you there own mechnaic reference who can fix the part immediately. BMW Road Sharjah is like a heaven for any car owner to get the car repaired with brand new original spare part at 30-40% discounted rates and get it installed also on same time. All the car spare part shops on Sharjah BMW Road offers major discount as per the original rates from dealer and that's why they become so popular and competitive that each shop fights the competition with 1-5 dhs difference. Reason they get almost 40% discount from dealer as they bulk purchase the parts and retail to end user at substantial discount. Sad reality of this area is not all spare part shops are selling original parts and some are selling fake parts too, so if you spot a huge difference in price you should ask: Is it original or tejari (fake) and see his face color changes and run away. In some cosmetic parts you might compromise with fake parts as they are not critical for your car or for your safety and you end up saving big amount, but on imp spare parts and consumale items you should never compromise for falke parts. BMW Road Sharjah location: Starting Point 25°18'30.6"N 55°23'26.7"E OR 25.308494, 55.390746 Sharjah BMW Road Location: Ending Point 25°19'19.3"N 55°24'12.3"E OR 25.322026, 55.403414 I estimate around 300+ car spare part shops must be there in this 2 Kms stretch, if anyone knows the exact number please let me know

Initially, I thought what a diff topic, but after reading half way I understood the actual reason. Well long back I went to see one car and the seller brag that if you buy my car I'll share a secret place from where you can maintain car by 50% discounted rates and I was like yeah I know BMW road Sharjah spare parts...lolol. Here is BMW Sharjah location map: https://goo.gl/maps/VZ3DRLEPg762 Keep driving straight and you will see all car brands shop on both sides.

@Faiz khan the afternoon drive is a Fewbie level drive and would be reasonably fast paced. I suggest you join tomorrow's morning drive which is a Newbie Level Drive

Hi Fuad, i have jammed more foam behind the mirors and now it 95% gone. The only issue is when I get the car washed, the foam is soaked and less efficient for a few hours. Ghetto solution, but it works 😂. I should try a more dense foam like a sanding foam for example. For the moment I’m using this 😂

No wonder I don't like any of them

Welcome back @Jocreative. See you tomorrow.

True, i went for my regular maintenance of my BMW to one of the workshops behind BMW road (Sree BMW shop). I brought the car for maintenance and every time a part needed to be replaced they sent their guy on a bicycle to go and source the parts in the same street I've spent quite some long hours already there sipping chai.....

I have done an auto recharge with a debit card. This is done through Salik website

I am sorry team, i can not join tomorrow, could not change my shift at hospital. enjoy ✌️

@Gaurav I can help you with that if the clay does not work.

Audi Q8 Finally, Audi realizes to compete in SUV-Coupe segment with BMW X6, Range Rover Velar, and Porsche Cayenne with its new Audi Q8 2019. Audi Q8 is actually a full-size luxury family crossover SUV. I personally like the design of this new Audi Q8 launched shortly and looks much better than Audi Q7 big and bulky feel. Although Audi removed the supercharger from this and replaced with 3.0 liter DOHC V6 twin scroll turbo. High riser, stylish and elegant family luxury SUV. Perfectly made for SUV-Coupe expansive market niche to compete in Audi family with other 8 marque cars of Audi: A8, S8, and R8. With all the beautiful arches, modern gizmos, head-turning featured lines and stylish LED lighting it can steal anyone's heart in a jiffy. As the Audi signature line, this new Audi Q8 2019 will have Quattro AWD with a central locking differential and Audi adaptive air suspension as a standard feature for all trim. Audi Q8 3.0 liter turbocharged will be matted with eight-speed gearing and will be available in 3 variants: 55 TSI - 3.0 Petrol - 335 hp pushing 0-100 in 5.6 Secs 50 TDI - 3.0 Diesel - 286 hp pushing 0-100 in 6.3 Secs 45 TDI - 3.0 Diesel - 231 hp pushing 0-100 in 7.2 Secs Audi Q8 comes in two packages in S line (Premium) and Vorsprung (Prestige) with all the possible bells and whistles you can imagine. There is very clever all-wheel dynamic steer in Vorsprung package that beats the tech game above all. Handling in tight spots, parking in short spaces will be far easier with Audi Dynamic All-Wheel Steer. All the Audi Q8 packages come with mini 48 Volt/9.6Ah lithium-ion battery that is fitted in the boot that enables the Hybrid technology to ease the start/stop and engine cruising at highway speed to bump up the fuel mileage and lower the emission. It also helps in reducing the turbo lag that is a major challenge for any turbocharged motor.

http://www.pajero.guru/mitsubishi-pajero-buying-guide/ This helped me weed out a lot of cars. Be very picky, check what work will need to be done at the next few services, as this will help you decide what the car is actually worth. The people who sell these cars in the markets couldn't care less about the car or you. It's your money, so be absolutely fussy with handing it over. Check everything works inside the car, including the back seats, the spare tyre, basically everything. The guide above will give you a good idea of how you should check the car. I've walked away after 1 minute with some cars. Best of luck Sorry, once you've narrowed it down to one, ask a garage to look through it. They could spot other issues, so you can use it to reduce the price further.

+W40 (well not exactly a tool, but useful)

I would add : + gloves + metal wire, stronger and more resistant to heat than plastic or nylon, in case you need to retain a pipe or a broken part.

I don't carry it, but I would add a box of MSeal. Very useful from past experience

You have a spare Pajero in your car buddy ? 😂
