  1. I have one for a manager in the company but 2009 It's maroon 2009 Xterra full option with audio control & cruse control and tire pressure monitor and less than 80,000 Km on the clock and parked most of the year in shaded parking in Mirdiff Ghruob I have the key as he left last month on business and he expected to return sometime next week.
  2. Friday after 8.30 PM or Saturday early morning would be suitable for all I think.
  3. Sorry Friday 26th June is not an option for me ...... But ...... What about next Friday July 3rd ??
  4. Hi Amid What is the latest update? did you set a date or made any reservations? Please let us know as I may bring a friend if he is in Dubai this week.
  5. Hi Taqir That is true but with the specified operating lubricants and temperatures! It did exceed 50C last couple of weeks several times! do you think Mobil 1 would survive on these operating situation?
  6. Hi Amitaj Mercedes is a benchmark in automotive industry and no one can deny it! I agree with you that other brands that you mentioned is offering a better driving experience than the Mercedes while Mercedes remains the best ride experience for passengers and the most reliable I ever had among all of them. so think about it like a wife option: 1- An age developed lady doesn't spent much money with a decent look (Mercedes) 2- An age developed lady that need to visit doctors clinics monthly with prestigious look (Jaguar) 3- A younger beautiful wife that brakes her hi-hills with her youth actions (BMW) 4- An average beautiful wife that didn't finish her education (Lexus) 5- An athletic wife that need to visit her doctors and have her vitamins on time (Porsche) So you have to make your choice which one you can live with! by the way you may have several options (ore than one wife allowed)!
  7. Sounds Good so we are 3 for now! I just need to let you know that it's my first time to do it!
  8. It's good idea but I'm afraid about timing! It's summer and the last weekend before Ramadan. Can you share with us the costs. and dose they offer a night laps? it would be more convenient can you get in touch with them and ask for offers and photos to market for the event.
  9. Hi I don't recommend installing aftermarket cruse control at all however if you need it you can check with the dealer for a retrofit kit or go for scraps and find accident car and take it out it should include steering wheel and brake switch and wiring and later you may need to make programming for engine ECU to enable the function.
  10. Hi You have a problem with one of your inner CV joins and require replacement! for the 2008 shacking in start either using wrong oil grade (less than 10W-40) or aftermarket oil filter (without check valve)would give you that shacks and metal knocking.
  11. Hi every internal compassion engine burn oil but the burned quantity vary upon condition and specs. and all sporty driving and high rives burn oil and it's even mentioned on owners manuals to top it up within specs of use and short quantity. please specify which Porsche are you looking for.
  12. Hi The S class is the benchmark for these class and all manufacturers are trying to match Mercedes quality. so if you like to have it just do it and be sure from the car condition before going with the deal so it's better to spend some more and take it to the dealer for inspection. and be sure whatever you spent later to repair something you'll not repair it again! Enjoy the luxury cruse Good Luck!
  13. Hi Gaurav just made it for you good. I just wanted to add couple of tips - be sure that engine is cold when you change spark plugs (since you need to remove air intake manifold to have access to replace the spark plugs) - replace gearbox oil and filter with originals only and if you find the oil contains metal slugs don't replace it and top it up and just replace the filter)
  14. Hi E.Plus is 92 octane while special is 95 and Super (extreme) is 98 So you need to refuel your car with 50 AED of Super (98 octane) and drive it for 30 min on high way speeding at 120 to 140 where allowed and hopefully your engine would flush all the carbon away you may add some octane booster or injector cleaner to 95 special and it would give the same effect. It's better to do it night time while temperature in thirty's the problem that most of cars running with air mas sensors deceived in hot weather due to air density changes and give the engine false information about air/fuel mixture while other cars running on MAP sensors (Manifold absolute pressure sensors) doesn't have the same issue except for elevation variation. Please check your fuel cap or door any you'll find factory recommendations RON92 , RON95 & RON98 which refers to the fuel grade and all will mention "UNLEADED" Good Luck and enjoy your night driving on the highway.
  15. Hi I Think the Nissan would be easier to maintain and service and would provide better resale value and have a very good off-road performance since it's based on a pickup truck while the Land Rover LR2 is a cross over based on ford Escape (Ford Torus AWD) and maintenance costs would be much higher (3 or 4 times much as the nissan) and the nissan interior would resist the sun heat and weather changes better than the Land Rover. which means if you went for a vacation for few months you just need to wash the nissan and start it and drive which the Land Rover would require some extra care after the same period. Good Luck
  16. Hi I think you have Dina Audio or Fender sound system which both support a specific number of channels for specific number of speakers including sub-woofer and adding aftermarket would built overload on the amplifier and Audio head which is connected to several modules in the car including adaptive headlights and instrument cluster and may affect your car manufacturing warranty please refer to the Dealer for extra detail before going thru your project. Good Luck!
  17. Hi For the 2010 Focus I think you need to replace ATF and filter and check gearbox crankcase for any bends or hits that may affect the ATF filter flow before going in any repairs or replacements that may cost you at least 2,500 AED and use Super fuel 98 octane and feel the difference for 1 full tank. and you may need to check lower torque support (lower gearbox mount for lose or damages that may require replacement Please use Original Motorcraft oil and filter you can use aftermarket that ATF change process may cost around 400 AED and the Fuel tank about 90 AED for 2011 model there was 3 gearboxes type Dura Shift and CVT and Dual Clutch and they had several recalls please verify with the dealer.
  18. Hi It's about the valve rockers mostly your car is over 100.000 Km and timing belt still original (factory installed) and even if replaced it want change that sound since it's non-adjustable type so you have to change your engine oil to thicker grade (10W-40 or higher) to fill the gaps and warm up your engine before driving and drive 10 to 15 min before starting the AC for the first 10-15 min (non-applicable advice!) and you'll feel the difference that was may way to drive my 2008 for 400,000 Km problem free for 4 years. other than that you can go for rebuilding engine head and no grantees on the results!
  19. The unmatched personality on design is sharp shaped as usual even with Korean replicates trying to use the Audi DNA in their designs. However I'm sure about the doubts about the the durability specially after using the automated Dual Clutch gearboxes with front wheel drive which want remain more than 120,000 Km with regular driver and with Audi skilled driver less that 100,000 Km unless you are comfortable to use the loaner car for a week and some times couple of weeks. Go for AWD models "Quattro"
  20. Hi Kakapoor as you mentioned your car is A4 2011 which mostly 1.8T or 2.0T Oxygen sensors are fitted in the exhaust system to evaluate CO usually it remains for 8 or 10 years as per service divisors told me few years ago but if you have a DTC reporting Oxygen sensor it would tell you which type of trouble you have Ex.circuit short/grounded/impossible signal/ low or high resistance or it would notify you mixture too reach / lean so for circuit issues you may double check on wiring and connectors if all fine you may double check your spark plug for other issues you need to check spark plugs if it's ok go forward to for secondary air pump (compressor) or secondary air vent which is a small electrical motor with air turbine pumping air from intake filter to exhaust to lower CO ratio (emission control) and check EGR valve which is related to secondary air pump. for turbo engines like yours you may check vacuum lines leakages for waste gate operation on the turbo if you have a black smoke. Good Luck!
  21. Hi Rashid Your window have anti-trap which means once motor sense a resistance it holds or stop or open down so from time to time it requires calibration specially after changing battery so you have to do it manually by pressing on window switch to open completely and keep pressing open for 10 to 15 seconds and the same with closing some times in all windows and some times not if calibration is not working so you have an issue in this window motor inside the door. and regarding the hatch if you talking about the key fob button that is the normal (1 push release the look and you can use the hatch handle 2 pushes open the hatch) Good Luck
  22. Hi Garry I'm afraid that Audi have no depth stick ! Sorry so your car "you mentioned A8 10" so if it's A8 2010 (6or8 cylinder) or S8 V10 both have ZF 6HP26 6 speed transmission which is good news it's good transmission used it Mercedes ,BMW ,Rang Rover & Porsche but in Audi it have the most reliable software and design. So here some questions that you have to answers: - when was your last major service (including ATF and filter) if more than 80,000 km driven after so you need to change both (be sure to get original ATF other ATF damages your gearbox) - These symptoms only in cold / worm condition it's related to your valvebody (mechatronics) and some times it's only a recetangle gaskit on top of the valvebody - These symptoms only in slow driving with vibration during shifts it's related to torque converter by any case once you have any job done inside your gearbox change ATF and filter (don't save 500 or 600 and pay it later 7000 or 8000 after 6 months to replace complete transmission) Good Luck
  23. Hi Rateeb Please check valet parking switch inside glove box and switch it off. Good Luck!
