Jeep Official Service Center Fully Booked
Ilya replied to Looper's topic in Jeep General Discussion Forum in UAE
Why don't you book an appointment at their Rashidya branch? -
I see two advantages of the large wheels: 1) It's nearly a "guaranty" that you won't have pop-outs, at all. There are some very extreme cases (like my only one 🤭), but normally you won't have any. With stock tires Wrangles still better than other cars in terms of pop-outs, but I've seen many pop-outs with Carnity on Sport/Sahara 32s and even Rubicon's 33s I won't touch the pandora box of the ability to climb higher on the dunes, but would just highlight the pop-outs 2) The look

I think its about 500 km on stock wheels and less on large ones (nor sure, but nothing tells me that Jeeps are good in efficiency) Regarding the noice - no issues at all (at all) - on stock, BFG315/70/17 and Coopes XLT305/70/17 tires. Its much better than e.g. lux cabrios like BMW Z4 or so. I assume all bad stories comes from the older, hardly modified jeeps

Speaking for JL/JLU, I would only leave fuel efficiency in the list of Wrangler's drawbacks. And it has 2 big advantages: 1) it is a new car with a modern and stylish (hello toyotas and mitsu) cabin. You enjoy when driving to sand and driving to opera; 2) you can remove the top and enjoy life differently

Jeep JL - Sand Stuck in the Defrost Button
Ilya replied to Looper's topic in Jeep Wrangler Forum in UAE
I have the same issue. Service guys told me it's a warranty case, kind of jam inside. Waiting for the panel already 2 months. In the meantime, they just disabled the whole panel, you can use your screen for everything apart from switching off the traction control (which can be done by removing the fuse) -
You can't mathematically prove the necessity of lift. You have 2 options - continue to think each day about the lift or to make a lift. I don't know any jeep owner who regrets lifting their cars. The roads in the UAE are wide and straight - so there is no real difference you have a Porsche or Jeep
-
I did, yes. Always, ofcourse, switching car off. Works well, not a sinlge error or so

Is it legal to drive Wrangler without the doors?
Ilya replied to Ilya's topic in Jeep Wrangler Forum in UAE
Didn't manage to get the answer. The most experienced guys are whether affiliated with the workshops installing tube doors, or addicted to all possible new features, so having no "part" (if they can buy one) is not an option for them If you pass through an RTA office you can check - please update here -
Looks like all the same I am only touching this fuse as I am waiting for the new control panel (to be replaced under warranty - buttons get stuck) and in the meanwhile agency just disconnected the whole panel inside the car. So fuse is the only option for me to drive on sand now
-
Here is the picture which saves 1500 aed (it is Sahara, looks like on Rubicon it might look different, but still the fuse is #50) BTW I can't say that car's performance noticeably increased in sand comparing with disabling traction control by the standard button
-
I was shown today how easy is to remove the fuse, disabling ABS/ESP. After this, I don't really understand why the killer switch is even discussed (the official costs ~1500 AED). I am waiting to see (or not to see) the difference comparing with disabling it from the cabin by pushing ESP off button
