  1. September’s project 🥴 I am planning to delete the spare wheel cover and the plastic trim on the rear door. i have just received the fibreglass replacement panels and I am waiting on delivery of the licence plate holder to go in the middle of the spare wheel. two questions for anyone who has done this. 1. what to do with the rear parking sensors? If you unplug the them do the other two still work or do all 4 need to be plugged in? 2. is it a legal requirement to have the rear fog light? thank you
  2. I am planning on getting fuel at the Al-haffar ADNOC (24hr) and taking a 20lt Jerry can. (Number 1) there is the closer ADNOC at AL-RAZEEN (number 2) but it is not 24hr, opens at 6am I think.
  3. Taking the 611 and coming in the other way is over 100kms shorter and a hr less driving. means I get a little more beauty sleep. 😳 I Will have to go easy on the loud pedal on the way, will save on speeding fines. 😂
  4. Definitely considering it, 160km round trip between the fuel station and start point, that’s half a tank just on the black top for the paj
  5. Unfortunately no that is not the case, if the rim is to narrow the bead will not seat correctly and the risk of rolling it off the rim is very high. especially the low pressure we are running.
  6. @Abhilash Kottakkal I actually think the problem is those new tyres are not suitable for your factory rims. That factory rim appears to have a bead grip ridge on the inside that is to small for the larger bead of your new tyres. If the bead is not allowed to seat properly every time you lower the pressure you will be at risk of this happening. I would take them back to the shop and see if they can confirm. don’t worry about getting help, that’s why we are In This club, it’s all about learning and helping each other 👍 Edit: just had a quick look and your factory rim look like it’s only 7.5” rim, right on the lower limit for those wider tyres you have just put on. Might be why they pop off so easy.
  7. The F1 pop out team in action 👍 or a gaggle of Pajeros gathering around a wounded comrade 😂
  8. Radiator changed, actually a very simple job, hardest point was removing and reinstalling the bash plate. Surprised it only dropped about 100mm out of the transmission cooler part, topped up the same amount so hopefully it’s good to go (transmission fluid is pretty old so that will be the next job) will test it out tomorrow on @Loopersrive 😳
  9. Thanks, Thought of that but the whole top of the radiator is crazed, I think it’s only a matter of time until it goes completely. The crack is in the main body of the tank just below the overflow spout/radiator cap.
  10. I have a sneaking suspicion that the top tank of my radiator has cracked 🤬, have a coolant stain that reappears next to the overflow spout. has anyone changed their own radiator in the paj? Any tips or tricks? my main concern is the transmission cooler in the bottom of the radiator. Can you just clamp off the transmission lines so you only have to top off the transmission? How much fluid did you lose out of the transmission? I have a radiator so will tackle this today or tomorrow, have new hoses as well to change. thank you
  11. @Looper, the oracle @Gauravhas commanded that we are to leave all ropes behind. 😅. I believe this is a brilliant idea, especially if it means @Bravoechohas to self recover 🤣 with a spoon 😜
  12. Do you have a flag yet?, edit, sorry just saw that you have one on your previous post
  13. Congratulations @Ben Williams, now you have reason to fix that gearbox
  14. @Looper thank you very much for a great drive today, covered a lot of ground. A lot of new areas for me, I think we ticked every main landmark in the area 😂 Many moments of calm followed by absolute chaos 👌 after the unfortunate mechanical issue the short wheel base group run to the exit point was awesome and topped off a great morning out. cheers
  15. Happy to join convoy 2 to even up the numbers 👍 and I want to see if @Loopercan jump as high as last week
