Good luck Fredy, with whatever works for you, but truly sad to see this beast on sale. You have changed my perception of what all you can achieve with this LWB beast in sand with right set of skills instead of just brute force. It really suit your style, hope for more badrol soon in future, someday.

@Melenany do you have any Saudi-based off-road club recommendations?

@Ahmed Farghaly system added you by mistake when Mohit left, I have removed you from the RSVP as this is a Fewbie Plus drive, hence I can't accept Fewbies.

@Julien Recan and @Faraz94 you have been moved to RSVP please confirm if you still like to join. @Ahmed Farghaly this is Fewbie Plus drive, hence i cant accept your WL showing Fewbie rank.

Alternatively, Pajero 4x4 system isn't rocket science tbh. Paying 2400 labor is still obscene. Though you have this diagnosis now, why dont you google a few Pajero or Mitsubishi Garages and ask them to quote you if you bring all these OEM parts from habtoor? You can easily filter garages based on reviews and ratings these days. My generous bet would be close to 500 dhs on the outside garage for the labor.

Please go through the Carnity Grading structure, to keep you and your vehicle safe: https://carnity.com/forums/topic/16479-off-road-club-grading-structure-v30/

I recently encountered, a super decorated "Pajero only specialist" who couldn't run the diagnostic and charged me for a useless report showing - "Not equipped" in all areas. And to end the debate he claimed, changed the Transmission as that's the only way to resolve the issue. Central diff lock blinking light also appears if low on fluid, when it can't engage fully. Have you checked the differential fluid? As a first step, better to replace if in doubt as it's a healthy and low-cost fix to refresh the fluid. Could you check all connectors that come on top of the transmission housing? Do you know if the guy checked with the computer diagnostic tool to show the relevant fault code to suggest changing the whole transfer case?
