  1. Congrats to the new owner @Premjit Vappala! I hope you enjoy the Silver Whale as much as I did ! See you soon on one of our drives !
  2. Head over to Dragon Mart. They sell the hoses separately. Will be around 40-60 AED
  3. With too many cars in the driveway, and the plans to eventually start saving up to buy some property (unless i live in my car), we decided to sell our trusty Nissan Patrol Safari. I purchased it only last year, from a colleague who had it for 7 months and never took it off-roading. The owner before him was registered as a commercial owner and had it for 8 months only, this commercial owner sold it to Al Futtaim Auto Mall and that's where my colleague bought it from. Until i purchased it, it had zero off-roading history. The people who know me, know that i am very particular about my cars and how i maintain them. This car got all the needed maintenance from independent 4x4 garages in Dubai who know what they are doing. Only last week i completed the 80,000km as well. All invoices are available. I kept the car mostly stock and removed the front off-road lights and cold air intake to sell the car like i got it from my colleague. Here are the details: 79,500 km (80,000km service completed) Michelin LTX AT Tyres 2023 Upgraded stereo (Super Safari Head Unit with reverse camera and steering controls). Front bash plate 10mm Underbody rustproofed and front axle reinforced Upgraded Steering damper (Icon). Fully serviced and accident free European expat owned, not abused or modified. Viewings possible in Damac Hills 2- Dubai Vehicle Status report in attachment. ASKING PRICE: 140,000AED, slightly negotiable for the person who makes an effort to come a have a look at it. CONTACT DETAILS: 056 504 26 32 - Send me a Whatsapp Vehicle-Status-Report.pdf
  4. Have a look at RiyadhRovers on Instagram. Not sure how big they are or they are still posting drives.
  5. Fantastic TJ, and the new owner will definitely enjoy it !
  6. At least there is more information now but it seems Habtoor is gonna use the bazooka to kill a mosquito 😜 More info here: https://www.pajeroforum.com.au/forum/vehicles/generation-4-3-pajero/64897-my-turn-for-centre-difflock-flashing-orange/page2
  7. Just trying to get few more details: - Did you have a Check Engine light? Or only the blinking center diff light ? - Did you shift from 4LLC back to 4H in one go, or did you put the gear in neutral first ? - Did the orange light keep blinking in 2H on the way home ? Did it ever stop blinking even after restarting the vehicle ? Or does it only start blinking after about 20mins of driving ?
  8. Hey @TheoB I am really surprised to hear that. There is indeed a sensor on top of the transfer case, which is a pain to replace as it's sitting on top of the transfer case and they would need to drop the transfer case in order to access/replace it. But replacing the transfer case ? That sounds very suspicious to me. I would ask them to show you the broken part inside the transfer case. These things are really reliable can can go for many many years if properly serviced with fluids.
  9. Congrats ! That's a beautiful beast ! I think 400-500km on-road perhaps to get everything to settle. As you will be starting with Newbie drives first i believe its not an issue at all.
  10. Thanks for joining on this great morning out ! @DP1011@Richard Franks@Martin M@Ben Lee@Andrew John Melvill@Ahmed Farouk@Vijay Cowlagi@Nizar Shawwa@Zubair@Islam Soliman@Prithvi Raj The weather was quite pleasant, and i hope this area brought some "change of scenery" to the off-roading game. The dunes were quite technical and as we had to make our way from North to South, we had a lot of straight crests to tackle. Of course that's part of the fun and i was caught a few times sitting on a crest myself You guys all drove fantastic, and as everyone reached early, we could do a quick briefing and leave on time. Thank you for that ! See you all soon in the sands again
  11. Well done @Talal H ! See you soon on the sands !
  12. Hi @Paurav My two cents: 1. Get the 2008 Prado fixed outside the dealership. It's not surprising that the Toyota dealer is more interested in selling you a new one. Seems like either they lack the expertise or time to really look into it. 2. Get the 2020 Sahara fixed. On a car this new this is definitely not normal, but Jeeps are sensitive to wheel balance and alignment. This can be fixed. They are fantastic off-road vehicles. The pickup you are longing for could be perhaps a Ford Ranger Raptor, but in any case i advise you to sort out fixing your existing vehicles properly, so you can at least get a good price for it. It now sounds you've given up on both vehicles.
