I honestly don't see a reason to modify the vehicle. It's a powerful beast on its own.

Have you started taking it offroad? Or noticed any issues?

Everything works fine so far

I recently bought a 3.5 2004 manual pathfinder which is meant to use only for weekend drives. I would like to have experts valuable inputs

-on building machine

-things to be taken care of

-selection of materials

-Reliability of materials

Get the iCarsoft for the bushy much more detailed than a simple OBD reader.

Or get a Bluetooth obd dongle from souq, download the software like Torque on your phone 

Not much you can do on obd other than read codes, clear codes and some monitor some parameters

I am using OBDII on my pajero connected to torque app and it works well. Measure most of the Parameters.😉

I was suffering from bad AC cooling in traffic since a month now. Checked and refill the original US Freon but still cooling drops significantly in stop and go traffic. Clean the front grill evaporator or condenser whatevr its called, still marginal improvement. Finally while researching this topic I foud that keeping a 2-3 gap distance in traffic is the only way to have nice cooling in Pajero. Idea is if you are too close to car in front then AC will suck hot exhaust air and if you are few meters away then it can get atomospheric air. Try and let me know if it works for you.

Install an extra cooling fan that might help to push more air .

I think I am one of the best qualified to answer this question as I have a big tendency to sleep while driving. This is what I do in the following order of preference: 

• Nothing beats getting a power nap of 20 - 30 mins
• Talking on the phone is the next best thing
• Eating sunflower seeds as its an activity in addition to eating something

Eating chips, chocolates, chewing gum have no effect to keep me awake

+1 for me too. 😔

Very sad .😔. 

Miss you all Guys. Hope you all had a wonderful time.,👍🏻

Trip report - hard work.

Reached the meeting point to see everyone was briefed by Gaurav bhai and ready to go. Weather took a pleasant turn to a nice cool breeze and with a cresent for a moon we had to rely mainly on the lights on our cars. With 10 cars in this area it was always going to be challenging, but thanks to the direction chosen by @Gaurav bhai we were not facing any slip faces. Some of the crests were razor sharp and our skills and concentration had to be just as sharp to take on this terrain.

We started off with some small technical dunes and the ropes were out from the moment we entered the first dune. Slowly but gradually we made our way towards the more open area and medium sized dunes. This area was fast paced and enjoyable. We did some side sloping, ridge cutting and kept on moving at a good pace which for me made up more for all the small technical dunes around.

After some awesome dune bashing the last part again saw us managing some very small and technical dunes which kept us on our toes. The ropes were out again as we helped each other out to keep the convoy moving. This got us to a nice spot to switch off our cars and enjoy our snacks with a cold drink. @Javier M left us at this point but his contribution during the drive is highly appreciated. After the break it was time to exit and although it was the matter of crossing just one dune, but no ropes were soared for this exercise also.

Once we reached the road we inflated our tyres and headed into the sunrise to reach home and grab a well deserved nap. Thanks to all who made it to the drive with lots of patience. With a 20 days break for me, I'll be seeing you on the other side of these 20 days break. Until than adios.

Happy Vacation. Will miss superman.

What was the actual problem? Claking on turning?

This repair just refilled grease and replaced the boot or anything else? How much they charged?

Have you tested full turn in 4x4 if it still claking or not?

Thats was my same question.? Have you tested it on sand?
