  1. Isn't RTA fining if the odometer is reversed as that's why they are recording it on every passing.....? However, I agree that used car dealers always have the best buy as they smell such a good thing and pick it up from the owner in a flash. I always, OK almost always buy low km cars and spend 2-3 months hunting as every low km I see and by the time I visit, it's already sold to a dealer (90% of the time).
  2. Welcome Razeen to Carnity and it's offroad club, looking forward to seeing you on newbie drive soon.
  3. I'm an advertising, marketing, events and PR specialist worked with several small - big - govt companies in the last 18 years in Dubai
  4. Looks like a laundry van to me with no doors and window on one side
  5. Of course, you have been helped enough with Fred and other comments, but just before you go whole nine yards I just like to ask you have you tried playing with lever a few times....? Put in several settings and drive for a few minutes, switch off the car and switch on again with few more attempts from 2H - 4H - 4HLC - 4LLC and back. In my car, if I loosely push out the 4W to 2W I see that blinking occasionally, so I put back in 4W and snap back at 2W with a little hard hand and that blinking goes away.
  6. I agree with Fred on this, buying one from scrap will be faster and cheaper than repairing here, due to expensive labor for such specialized work.
  7. DVD player, GPS, camera comes in 2 din, just an audio player is single din Post your dash pic here
  8. I have got the clayton player for my wife trailblazer, two years back and so far she is very happy with it. It has DVD, GPS, rear camera, bluetooth etc. I think it was for 500 something as I got whole job for 1000 including rear screen on roof, reverse camera with installation etc..
  9. Yes something like this one with the big vent in the center (back facing) I need
  10. Read Again Hahahah, is this corvette one.....?
  11. I agree on electrifying Mustang possibility, though this spy shot didn't look any different tbh, maybe no much change planned by Ford in this tight economic ....
  12. Excellent post @Javier M, as usual, your contributions are always detailed and helpful. Keep it up. Only small thing I like to add for others to not to increase the radiator capacity beyond 25% as that will put additional load on the stock water pump. Of course, more coolant is better but one need to offset the load on the water pump that might fail or make it slower in circulation.
  13. Mine was Nissany Sunny 1992 model in the year 2002 and used it very nicely being the first car in UAE. I mean real nicely - all the pun intended
  14. Of course everyone is right in their observation of not in Parking or in reverse, not securing car with another tow rope. Here are my few observations: Actual tip over with winch was too fast The winch is underrated to hold the weight (Maybe) Winch cable hit the rock when under load resulting in a snap No rope assist used while winching that could have injured someone No people push required if winch fails all 3 people would have been injured
  15. Sure, keep us posted on what they found out and how you fixed the issue
  16. Then it's time to find out your service history if gear failed due to no oil change......! Is your car moving in any gear or complete dead? I don't think you need the second opinion if Nissan dealer said CVT failed then I'm sure they are serious. Now the question is how and where to repair. You can search Hoorani Automatic Gear in Sharjah, and find out how much they can rebuild the gear and also check with Dexol in Dubai. They both are good, dexol will be tad expensive and see which one offer better warranty for their work. If you still need the second opinion then there are tons of General service workshop in Dubai here in business listing section, see which one is closer and go there.
  17. Mobil 1 and Grand Service Center has awesome steam wash all across Dubai. Just google the nearest one and call them as in some centers steam wash is not there.
  18. Do you mean "Gear" Oil and filter or "Engine Oil and filter" changed 6 months ago? Do ask Nissan on what should you do next if car CVT gear is failing at 70K irrespective of maintaining with dealer....? I'm sure if it's regular behavior they must have some sort some type of program or partial warranty coverage or goodwill warranty coverage to take care of this. Have you tried that...?
  19. Totally agree on Dexol is amazing and also Hoorani in Sharjah is also equally good. Though not sure if Hoorani does Bimmers as I repaired my Accord gearbox ages ago
  20. When have you changed the gear oil and filter last? And have you asked the Nissan guys the reason of failing CVT transmission at 69K seems too early? Have you checked if there is any recall to this issue? In which year and at how many kms your car warranty have expired? https://carnity.com/recall or google it
