  1. Putting dish liquid or shampoo makes the wipers last bit longer from what I have seen...
  2. Once the grease is out and sand sets in then the tolerance increases with time if you put thicker grease temporarily it will be silent but will be back at a later date... unless you have changed the outer or inner CV joint . That means you have eliminated the problem...
  3. Try to notice the neck and joint of the clutch if it's leaking then it's time to change the clutch The radiator if choked and serviced will only bring back the problem at a later time it's much better to toss in a new high volume radiator even if the radiator is not choked if you see it's plastic body turning in to a shade of brown or if aluminum fins oxidation then it's high time you get that radiator out of the equation When changing the radiator it's always better to toss the thermostat with it as it too has worn-out (Only recommend for garage) While the car is running touch the upper and lower hose if the thermostat is bad there will be drastic difference in temperature of both pipes And open the radiator cap and notice the water at the cap if it's turning nicely at the cap place then the water pump is working strong Notice the leaks and air in system These steps mentioned above is for professionals only and should be executed by a professional workshop technicians under no circumstances us should be held responsible as these steps could and can inflict life altering harm
  4. A place where you learn and put knowledge in for the better good of the community...
  5. At that Time when it was in warranty did you bother to get second opinion somewhere other than the dealer...? Cvts as of yet have reliability issues so getting it FULLY repaired is the best option

  7. Not exactly 1 was throwing water down the exhaust but still running 1 had it pully bolt place broke the auxiliarys were not moving but the engine was up and running 1 had had some how managed to make a hole in the block was running on 5 cylinders but throwing oil all over the place One was overheating but the owner came in a week after informing me I had sent the head for facing but the laith guys returned it back stating that the head is cracked and won't be repaired...that too was running when I removed the head 😂 Not only pressure issues but heat problem including
  8. Basically this area Unnamed Road Unnamed Road - Sharjah https://maps.app.goo.gl/N3SvEVDQUGbMcsyY7
  9. Or better take it to some good workshop and get a comprehensive test there without much head ache they will happily rip the bumpers and all the liners and point you all the repairs done previously from there you can guess how hard it was used too...those sitting at the shamil and tasjeel are just idiots acting in confidence... I took my beloved Tercel for passing they failed it stating that the power steering assembly is leaking when confronted then they shifted stating that the automatic transmission fluid is leaking mind you my car didn't had power steering system in it nor was it having a automatic gear If they can't differentiate atf from engine oil then only good knows what type of things are over or under looked... It would be better to pay some more to the workshop and get it nicely tested which will give you the actual results not just some educated guess...
  10. Go opposite old rotana hotel area there are many shops who deal with stereo system they might have the up to date map for your car we used to take customers American spec Lexus there to put gcc maps....
  11. You can still be a victim if are just passing through it no worries...😁

  13. There is a company which strokes engines and they can upgrade that 3.5 and 3.8 to 4.0 but will surely put a make a hole in your pocket...
  14. I have replaced few 6 cylinder engines of Cherokee....but they all were still running when we changed them. they can withstand pretty much anything without much fuss...to kill a Cherokee engine you have to go to lenghts....
  15. Don't stand out be in the herd...hope all is fine...
  16. Sharjah is pretty strict even if it is not modified then also they will take your car and you walking for a few days until they figure out if it's modified or not....
  17. Ramadan Karim to everyone and all

  19. If you get it scanned and post the codes here we could try and point you in a direction....
  20. Expansion valves some times goes cucu and whistles or could be low refrigerant best would be to hook a manifold gauge at peak heat time like 10 to 1 at afternoon and get the reading's and post it here so someone can help...
  21. Did those guys check the oil pressure after finishing up the work...we had faced something similar in a Camry long time ago when that engine was pretty expensive and he was determined to make it quite after changing few disc's it still had alil bit sound left after cleaning a sludgy strainer chain tensioner and changing the oil pump the engine became really quite...that guy still has the Camry but nowadays he himself uses camal oil and aftermarket filter whenever he comes for oil change...
  22. Happy birthday to you bhai I am coming for the cake 😀
  23. It happened to my car whenever I used to turn at high speed like going through a ring to climb or exit a bridge the vsc would kick in and bring the car to a halt often triggering people behind my car to crazy bats scattering left and right....gave me a hard time until i figured it through viewing the live data of abs that the speed sensors we're acting crazy specially when the steering angle sensor was giving inputs....
  24. From my workshop experience what i do is use labanups diluted with water even more if a pinch of salt is added Or just plain glucose powder in some cold water also does the trick On that note I am feeling thirsty now
