  1. Sharjah scrap yard is a best bet. If you cant find one. Better consider changing the core of the present one from any good half way decent radiator shop in sharjah. As it comes pre made to exact size and this mechanic just need to remove and open radiator to slide those cores. May be 3 hrs job and 100 dhs labor for changing cores. New cores may cost you 500 dhs - 1000 dhs depending on cooper or aluminium you want and whether 2 core or 3 core setup you want.
  2. For coolant expansion tank replacement there is no wiring you need to deal. Can you please specify what exactly you need. Thanks.
  3. Hi CJMCG You would be looking at 100k - 120k aed for used 06 sports depending on km and Service History. IMHO spend few grand extra for car with full service history. Regards to service there are few good landies specialist in Dubai. Al Tayer being a dealer, but usually a rip off for older model. Then comes AAA which is second to Al Tayer in workmanship and half in price. Then third comes Gulf Star in Sharjah at very decent price but long waiting sometime as he is favorite among used rangie owners. Hope it helps. btw welcome to Dubai
  4. Jump start the EAS relay by jump wire and compressor will start in half key position (Dont start the car). Let it run for 5 min to fill air in tank and remove the jump wire and start the car and soon it will inflate the balloon with present air in tank. As soon as vehicle lift up hit the inhibit switch on dash so that it doesn't level the ride and again loose all air. With this temp technique you can at least drive RR without jumping like bullock cart.
  5. Get your gear box diagnosed. It seems when gear in engaged then it makes this noise. Pretty scary and concerning. Dont drive before you solve this issue.
  6. It depends if its about to finish or not. Its simply consumable item. How about getting my wife car fuel tank filled too while getting my car fuel top up.....Good or bad????? Same way bro.
  7. Only reason is alternator is dead, or another highly unlikely reason is failing the big AMP battery fuse. Which only blows off if there is serious short cicruit in car.
  8. Thats the problem with overloaded electrical options, sorry mate i am just showing frustration to British guy's designing car for GCC You need a OBD scanner to see which sensor failed while off road and replace that. Modern cars are pretty decent money making scam.
  9. Not really, as it get replaced every 40k and top up as and when required.
  10. Water is actually much much much better in cooling property so don't worry. We prefer coolant for anti rust properties. You can remove the coolant from expansion bottle and refill with coolant and also you can open the radiator drain plug (underneath) and refill with coolant. In this little while no rust have been formed so don't worry much.
  11. Fuel sensor inside tank must be lazy or getting faulty. Its a bit long job to change.
  12. Lt mechanic diagnose and deliver you a good news or bad news. It cud be steering pump, stabilizer or rack itself.
  13. If after hitting switch for up not bottom still problem persist that means the switch which supposed to turn the lower section off isnt listening and need change of switch or open the under section to see the duct. Range has 5 motor bender section control the ducts, three located on right side on passenger tweeter side and two on driver side.
  14. Hi Doc, welcome to Landy Dubai. Nice to hear about your Land Rover collection and plan. Why not choose defender for rally. Or you planning engine swap in that Disco 1. Still manual gear will be tough nut to crack here in Dubai. Anyways Good luck for rally, post some pics of prep and rally here. Im excited.
  15. not much 300 - 400 dhs for front pair.
  16. Iridium plugs produce VERY STRONG SPARK resulting in burning the fuel mixture (petrol + oxygen) properly and nicely very fast. This optimizes the fuel efficiency and enhances the HP too (marginal). They cost around 50aed each options are there for NGK and denso both. Denso is 55 aed and NGK is 50 aed, both are equally good. Available with Tazweed in shj BM road.
  17. Check all the relays, it must be electrical issue only. Start by checking relay then fuel pump.
  18. Go to ismail garage (Al Nakhila Garage) or his assistant Ashraf, they can reset that in 10 mins. Its behind BM road in shj.
  19. Take for long drive for more than an hour, as it might mean that battery isnt getting fully charged in short run and throw battery light on thinking that battery is weak or dying. Is car starting fine now after jump start once????
  20. It shudnt happen with new tires at all. May be its cheap quality rubber, never seen Apollo here in Dubai. I think its Indian brand. Show to them and ask them to check if something is wrong....!
  21. My advise dont lift such a beautiful car, it has so many options and quite capable offroader why would you lift and risk so many things for an inch or two ground clearance. upto 2 inch is safe, though.
  22. near the engine bell housing on left from down.
  23. You can get good sand tires and lower to 12 psi, get the exhaust, then headers and then chip tuning to optimize torque gain.
  24. britpart isbest for standard height. If want lifted for offroad, then go for heavy duty one from britpart or king coil.
  25. me too, need instruction anybody here with more knowledge on this subject knock knock guys.
