  8. Super Congrats @Lorenzo Candelpergher and so well deserved ! I still remember you joining us with the White Patrol Y62. You improved your skills every weekend, came with hunger to every drive, and your attitude and willingness to learn more about this passion has been exceptional. I am delighted to see you leading convoys throughout the UAE, and you having the explorer attitude there is no doubt that you’ll be exploring every nook and cranny of this wonderful desert. Enjoy many more drives and hope to see you soon in the sand again !

  10. You absolutely deserve this Islam. Your journey in off-road has been all-in from the beginning, never backing down from a challenge and always humble and appreciative to others. Looking forward to many more drives together ! (In little blue Pajero that is 😅)
  11. Ouch that might be a challenge. I am not sure but perhaps there are like these kinds of universal rubber spacers you can get installed to get around 1,5 inch lift?
  12. DRIVE RSVP IS NOW CLOSED @BHANU PRAKASH VISHWANATH @Ferl Brown @kiranshinde@Usman Basit @Simon Hope@Felix Obst @Alex Raptor @Davie Chase @Ramandbx@Rsjiv Samuel @Joji varghese@Daniel Rodas @Alfred Alinazar Please find your convoy positions for tomorrow in above list. Some pointers: 1) Please be on time, and a bit earlier is always better so you can get your flag up and deflate in time. 2) Please make sure to bring your offroad tools and flag. No flag=no drive. 3) We will be using CHANNEL 2: 446.03125 Mhz for all convoy comms. 4) Please wear your mask whenever you are outside your vehicle. Let's keep it safe. Seniors on the drive are @Islam Soliman and @Alex Raptor and no with seniors i don't necessarily mean they are old They are senior club members and will help you out with any hiccups we might face along the way. See you guys tomorrow ! PS Be careful about the meeting point, as there will be another convoy further up ahead that dirt track that belong to @Mehmet Volga. These are the Fewbies. So kindly pay attention to make sure you dont end up in a Fewbie drive
  13. Yes, we have seen the fences being installed over the last couple of months and heard rumours. Last week on our Mahafiz drive we avoided this area due to the fences, and we should stay out of it. With the amount of people littering all over the place and disturbing this area, it was bound to happen and i am in a way happy that they have fenced it off for preservation. There are plenty other areas for us to play in.
  14. Congrats Mohamad ! Well deserved ! Keep rocking the Y62 or LC 😀
  15. Many Pajeros are a bit sensitive on the transmission cooler side. Especially the models 2018 till now they seem to have more issues, OR they let the oil cooler temperature warning appear earlier in comparison with the older models (Vanessa's 2008 model never has this issue). Most popular solution is to add an external cooling fan and mount it in front of the transmission cooler. On the other hand you have the cooler season now coming the next coming weeks so if i were you i would wait a couple more drives to see if this issue persists or not. @Anish S and many other are happy with the extra cooling fan and seems to solve the issue. I wrote a topic on this a while back:
