Like Fred said, I never have overheating problems with my Pajero. I always drive in tiptronic but mostly drive in 2nd hear, I only shift back to first to do a hill climb or when I need a little power if I lose momentum. Try to keep your car in 2nd as much as possible ....

Boy, was I nervous this morning when I woke up .... I was not sure I could lead a convoy through the desert, especially Lisaili. But after a talk with @Rahimdad where he assured me that if I was not feeling comfortable, I didn't have to lead.

So we head off with @Rahimdad in the lead. First through some smaller dunes but we soon reached the nice long rolling dunes and I felt so happy and confident that I maybe could take the lead after all. After a few weeks of supporting AN and newbie drives, I really needed to stretch my legs and have some adrenaline going through my body. The long dunes in Lisaili are so much fun and I enjoyed them a lot ! I almost forgot I had a convoy behind me 😊

I want to thank @Rahimdad for giving me the opportunity to lead today and @Gaurav for the leaders leads I could join and of course my hubby @Frederic for always standing behind me and teaching me everything I know. 

See you all soon back in the sand ! 

I am driving a LWB Pajero from 2008. When I bought the car, the previous owner put new covers over the original leather seats but I got them off today because they annoy me and it's difficult to clean and vacuum the seats after my drives in the desert. The sand is getting stuck between the covers and the original seats. Of course, my original seats are not in the best shape, it's a bit of an old car .... 

Does anyone know an address, maybe in Sharjah (it's a bit cheaper 😜) of someone who can replace or fix the seats in my car ?? 

I don't have any climbing issues with my Pajero. I just have to make sure that you have enough momentum before you begin a climb and then the Pajero takes you everywhere.

@Ale Vallecchi just wondering if car with a diff lock is a must for this drive?

Not necessary @Chaitanya D i did the drive last week and I don't have diff lock in my car

Congratulations @Ale Vallecchi

In my opinion, if you follow the rules, then you don't get in trouble ! I know Gaurav for a long time and he is not going to give you a warning for nothing. He makes sure we can all drive every weekend, even under the circumstances we are in so be respectful and listen !!!

If you want to be treated like adults, then behave like adults !

I did and reached no man's land ... Could I get a contact to someone who I can call ... for a newbie like me, I would think that would be important

You went to the wrong meeting point, you were registered in the ABSOLUTE newbie desert drive in the morning !

I thought you loved the Big Blue, else I was also inclined to state a new car. Hey it's your birthday, you can put your wishlist here. I am sure Freddy would comply very soon.

I love my Big Blue but that doesn't mean I cannot love a new one even more 😂

Best wishes for the day and year ahead. Hope @Frederic is getting you something special like a New Winch 

Or a new car !!!!!! 

Hi Lisa

I am driving a Pajero and for oil change, I recommend Shell, Castrol or Mobil one. Be careful with the gas station brands. 

Welcome to the Pajero club 😜
