  1. Where is the facepalm emoji when you need it.
  2. Oh and some Lambo models,Espada Jarama Jalpa and the moat recent. The Uterus.
  3. Back on topic.Pagani and Konnisegggggeeeeeesssieeg habe the worst names. Zonda, Huwayra.CSX etc etc etc
  4. Question is why would you lower a 4x4 in the first place!
  5. Legendary, that's bit of a stretch innit! When ever legendary and vehicle or 4x4 is used in a sentence, Pajero is not exactly the first thing that comes to mind.
  6. I think you press and hold it for a while to go to next.
  7. Don't think its that simple. You have to check wheter your ICE system takes inputs from the steering wheel and if so all the wiring is in place.
  8. Gaurav you finally found someone who is crazy about an old Pajero (a rare breed) as you are. Think you guys are going to be real good friends. A match made in heaven!
  9. Those are some ugly ass donk wheels. Even there ever was a SUV I would consider replacing my Range Rover it would be the current gen Escalade.The Navigator is also up there but ever since Ford has gone gay and putting only 6cylinder motors in the current lineup. Not so much a fan anymore.
  10. Just a Q7 with a different body. Take the Rambo Lambo over the uterus anyday
  11. And since 2012 was end of line for the L322 most if not all issues should have been resolved and most probably as LR usually do they add a lot of extras on the last year of production. They did that with the P38 but not sure about the L322
  12. LM - New Range RoverLS - Range Rover SportTitle AJV8 4.2 Supercharger Auxiliary Coolant PumpLast Modified 14-MAY-2009 17:09Category EngineSymptom 402000 Cooling System ConcernsContentIssue: Supercharger auxiliary coolant pump concerns. The customer may complain of reduced power and or a misfire at high engine loads and road speeds.Cause:1) If in the following vin ranges 6A198058-7A261419 (LM Range Rover) 5A901924 - 7A109767 (LS Range Rover Sport) then please refer to Technical Bulletin LTB00041v2.2) A concern may exist where the supercharger auxiliary coolant pump is found to be not running, this could be due to internal motor brush wear. This issue was rectified from VIN numbers 8A290432 (LM Range Rover) and 8A181100 (LS Range Rover Sport).Procedure for replacing the supercharger coolant pump can be found in Global Technical Reference (GTR) under section 303-03D – Supercharger Cooling. Repair Time 26.50.26 – Auxiliary coolant pump (AJV8 supercharged) – renew – 0.80hrsAction: Please renew the supercharger auxiliary coolant pump as necessary, part number PEB500010. Most of the time, the issue was the Supercharger coolant aux coolant pump was wired in reverse as in the connector was flipped as in + and - was flipped ! Other than this AFAIK there really isn't anything that comes to mind
  13. Then clicking noise is vibes are most likely a worn out UJ joint
  14. Bloody hate it! As is evident from my post in that link!
  15. Death Wobble. Usually starts when you hit a bump or uneven patch, but not always. Look it up, common for solid axel 4x4s Something in your steering linkage is knackered, could be a bush or a ball joint or both.
  16. Porsche make everything that looks like the 911. Aston Martin make everything that looks like the DB.
  17. I pretty much worked on all I cars Ive owned save for bigger jobs or jobs that needed an extra pair od hands, then I would go down to my buddies workshop and we would tackle it toghter. This year Ive been ( out of need ) doing a lot of electrical work. Most extensive job this year was dismantling my interior center console and modifying a connector bmw ignition switch which I got from the scrappies for 50dhs which is exactly the same pin wise but a connector collar is a mirror image. Similar LR part would cost me a couple of grand. Unfortunately that wasnt the issue. So had to pull out the starter from below which was huge PITA got it refurbished at a little hidden shop that just does starter motors and dynamos. Put everything back and the job was a good one. Other electrical job was in my other older ride which developed a strange issue that every now and then while driving all interior power and headlights and tails would go out and then come back after sometime. After lengthy investigation I narrowed it down to what could only be power supply from under the hood fusebox to the interior ecu under the driver seat. So ran a new lenght of wire instead of ripping out the entire wiring loom from the fusebox point to interior ecu ( it helps to have repair manuals and electrical diagrams !) And its been 6 months plus and its been working fine. So overall I think saved myself atleast a few grand in repair costs.
  18. Test is only relevant at low speeds like shown any higher OEM or pattern, they are getting crumpled. Most of the safety cones from the monocoque chasis itself. So another attempt by VW to mislead customers. Havent they learnt their lesson yet! Unless ofcourse your only concern is glacial speed fender benders
  19. I doubt youll find a plug and play solution for your car. Its going to be a custom job for sure.
  20. As long as they are the same size and car not a fulltime 4x4 it should be alright. Techilnically it should not matter even if fulltime 4x4 but since I like err on the side of caution......
  21. I sorry RD that information is factually incorrect. Octane reduces premature detonation otherwise know as pinging i.e can withstand more compression, its preferable in performance motors because of their high compression motors.
  22. Coolest name ever: The Interceptor
  23. Never a good idea. Puts extra load on your motor as its engaged all the time, robs it of a few hps and your mpg drops. Not to mention noisy as hell all the time. Why not just buy another clutch from another place or if you are too jaded after the last show, get it directly from Habtoor.
