  1. @Vanessa8580 car is at the workshop and unlikely to be ready in time with a temp fix. The MAF failed after only 4000km, so mechanic wants to sort it out with the oem supplier. Still had a fun 53 min of looping this morning before it was cut short. Will unfortunately remove myself from the drive. Have a great morning tomorrow!
  2. Hi @Vanessa8580 my MAF sensor failed this morning while on a drive with Looper. Have made it back to Dubai and am trying to source a new one. Hope i come right! Will let you know if i have to remove myself from tomorrow's drive.
  3. Hi all, thanks for the short for me drive! I tried Mitsubishi in Al Ain but they were out of stock, picked up a new air filter while i was there. Called my mechanic in Dubai and he is trying to source a MAF sensor for me. Now waiting on the news. Hope I can get it fixed and make the drive with Vanessa tomorrow. Hope you all had a fantastic morning!
  4. I would like to propose the 4runner Storm Trooper of @Marek. Love the way yours has progressed over the last year. Subtle mods to the looks, great suspension and the recent super charger providing some wild horses.
  5. Massive congratulations to @Benje_Junior, you are an inspiration to many already and will be to many more as you continue on your journey! All the best and see you on the sand soon.
  6. Thanks @Ale Vallecchi for another great exploration style drive, always enjoy drives in this style! To @Aser and @Luke K P great support for the few issues along the way, and often assisted by @Glenn W @Mike M. and @Alexanderrr. To @Steffi was great to see your confidence improve through the morning on your 1st FB drive! Some great lines and an introduction to ridge riding. Well Done. To everyone on the convoy, Thanks for a great day out! Cheers Andrew
  7. @Ishak yip you do, was very pleased with how they performed. Went for as light as I could go without spending silly money on forged wheels.
  8. @DP1011 another fantastic drive in Nahil! Always a good place! To all in the convoy thanks for making it a special morning! Whoever you are supporting enjoy the cricket!
  9. @Looper and the entire convoy, thanks for a great Sunday morning drive! A few minor issues aside it was a really good flowing drive through some relatively clean sand. Hope to get my rim issue resolved before next weekend! Again thanks for all the assistance with this! Enjoy the last few hours of the weekend!
  10. @DP1011 get well soon! We will all miss you. @Looper thanks so much for jumping in as lead, see you nice and early tomorrow
  11. @Simon D Thanks for an amazing drive, lots of ridge riding and lots of great climbs! Fantastic driving from the entire convoy helped with the flow through the dunes! Nothing more than a few loop arounds for everyone to make it through the drive. Re my MAF sensor issue, got back to Dubai with no further issues. Engine just running a bit rough as expected. Of to the mechnics care tomorrow. @Ishak thanks for lending me your code reader will be in touch to get it back to you, was a relief to check for codes again on getting back and not seeing anything new!
  12. Hi there are a number of Australian pajero sites that sell adjustable sway bar links and upper control arms. Search of a site with Budget and 4x4 and life in the title. They also have a number of you tube videos on the suspension options they stock. Run by a south african guy.
  13. Thanks @Ale Vallecchi for another great drive! Some really good technical training through tight dunes, soft sand and a forest of bushes. Great support as always from @Rob S and @Luke K P. And to the whole convoy and especially the Fewbie drivers, very well done!
  14. @Ale Vallecchi, I will bring a few snacks to have during a break. This will be my 50th drive with Carnity.
  15. Hi Davie, looks like I will have to be at work on Sat morning. I have removed myself from this drive and will drive with Ale on Sunday! All the best for the drive and have a blast.
