  1. @GautamaialniMost of the off road garages and workshops can fabricate and install the skid plates for you...You can find these garages in Ras Al Khor and Al Quoz area...just ensure the thickness is between 8mm to 10mm for the front and for the back you just need one just to prevent the rear bumper to scoop sand. The front skid plate should not exceed 1100 dhs and the back 450 dhs max...

    You might need a front bumper trimming as well.

    Hi Pajero owners 🙂

    Can anyone recommend a well trusted shop to buy spare parts for Pajero, it’s for a friend who will take it with him as he’s not living in UAE.

    He mainly needs Break discs & pads and other parts in suspension.

    Thanks 

    There is lots of shops like Divya, Al Amani, etc.. that sells original spare parts and is slightly cheaper than Habtoor...

  3. Thank you for initiating this discussion @Frederic

    - I installed a cooling fan with a on/off switch.

    - Few weeks ago, i forgot to switch the cooling fan ON and i did get transmission overheating indicator. What was strange is that it is winter, it was a newbie drive and prior getting the warning, the car was on and idle for at least 30 minutes because i was assisting another stuck car. 

    - I prefer driving on D (feel a bit lazy to shift) but when driving on tip-tronic there is no heating issue (without fan), i guess because there is less pressure on the transmission due to constant uneven nature of the terrains. To make sure, we can do some trials with some Pajeros that get this issue and see whether driving on tip tronic really helps. I can volunteer to do that because i can switch off my extra cooling fan.

    Once during the drive, i tried to monitor the temperature by plugging OBD toggle but apparently Pajero does not have a sensor that gives you the actual temperature in degrees for the transmission oil like the one for engine oil.

     

    1) Pajero model 3.5

    2) 130,000 KMs done so far 

    3) Transmission Oil changed last month

    4) I drive “D” mostly

    5) Tyre pressure when off-roading 12 PSI

    6) Year 2012 LWB
