@Lawrence_Chehimi Had my 2015 JGC started making the ticking sound into ~140K kms and ~5.5 years.. Its a known issue with 3.6 pentastar engine and is to do with the rocker arms... I think Jeep fixed this issue for the cars post 2015.. From my experience and what I have read online, it doesn't affects the cams immediately though the sound gets scarier.. But at some point it can damage the cams... I had mine fixed after running with the sound for arnd 20k Kms.. It cost approx 10K to 20k to fix at agency depending on the damage....In my case, car was out of warranty but still got goodwill approval from FCA done through the agency where I ended up spending only 3.5K which came along with 6 basic oil change services included.. in my case the car had full service history with the agency..... I would suggest to try the luck with agency for a good will approval..

Congrats Shereen!!

Congrats Naveen…!😊

Thanks for the wonderful drive @Kailas. Liked two bits of it the most.. the initial practice/coaching session we did for the ridge riding and criss-crossing... all along it was more learning it on the fly for me, but this time I have a better understanding of the technique and approach we should take doing it.... The second bit was the high pace drive and maneuvers that we did towards the last quarter of the drive... @M.Seidam & @Lawrence_Chehimi. .. a big thanks for all the efforts that made this long convoy run smoothly.... learned a lot watching all those recoveries that you guys helped out.... @munkybizness Thanks.. perhaps I am learning to tap more our of the car...😄.. hopefully see you on next weeks drive...

Bought a Nilight (ZH409 20 Inch 420W Triple Row Flood Spot Combo 42000LM LED Light Bar with Heavy Duty Off-Road Wiring Harness). The spec says its 420W rating light bar which equates to 35Amps. The combo wiring harness that came along have a 15A fuse on the positive battery terminal connection with a 40A relay for the switch, The wire in 16 AWG which is technically rated for 15A. Please advise on the below, 1) Is the wiring harness suitable for the 420W light bar considering that the wire is only 15AWG and there is a 15A fuse. Will the fuse blow off with the 420W load. 2) What's the max rating of light bar, spot lights that we can go for with a Pajero 2013 model. Is an upgrade on battery or alternator required? Thanks in advance for the advise.

@Anish S I am afraid I will have to drop out as I have taken up some other commitment.. Thanks.

Hi @Anish Splease add me to wait list- 2nd drive

Congrats @Damien Ranjit..

Congrats @Rizwanm2..

Thanks @Anish S and @Hisham Masaad for another exciting drive today morning… Though I missed the high dunes and the play areas from our last week’s drive, this terrain threw in different set of challenges with inconsistent soft n hard patches and the vegetation (got the opportunity to field test my new bash plate)… the drive was a different learning experience.. @munkybizness: Excellent drive writeup… @Looper yes.. even i felt i shud hv steered it better and had better throttle control to avoid digging in, as I thought about it later.. anyways now hv a better hang of it, lesson learned for my next refusal opportunity….the SWB definitely offered the advantage of better pwr to weight ratio..

looking forward to this drive..
