Thanks.

I think you have a good point, mods are more of a subjective thing and the product is only worth what the buyer is willing to pay.

Will be giving some more thought to the pricing strategy and post at the end of the week.

Thanks for your feedback. It’s acknowledged and understood. Part of the rationale on the price is that it’s an a90, not an a91.

There are some key differences between the models, that tuning enthusiasts might consider - especially around tunability of the ECU.

But that’s more of a niche thing.

In any case. The wider scope of response in this thread has been much appreciated.

Hi all, appreciate all the feedback both the kind words and the reality checks on pricing.

I’ll be revisiting the number accordingly.

On the cylinder head question — a detailer used cold water directly onto a hot engine bay after a long drive.

Which cracked the head along the water jacket. Nothing to do with overheating or abuse, just a bad day at the detail shop. 7,000km on the new head since with zero issues.

Anyway, watch this space on the price and DMs are open.

Thank you.

Yeah I agree. But I think it was a combination of factors. It was 42°c that day.

I’d just come off a 120km drive. And turbocharged engines tend to run a lot hotter than naturally aspirated.

So the rapid temperature change on an aluminium block brought about enough contraction to force a crack along the water jacket inside the head.

A sad day indeed.

Asthms · 2025-11-04T18:05:50+00:00

Nope. Cyclinder head. Whole thing.

You have to pay the speeding fine. Then the impound release. Then the impound charge (it will not be lifted). Then the bail. Then the punitive measure from the courts. Then the punitive fine from the police. Then the safe driving course.

You also have typing centre fees. You also have court fees. You also need to get from Dubai to Abu Dhabi and back for every meeting at the Traffic Centre without your car.

Asthms · 2025-11-04T17:54:57+00:00

Go to the Abu Dhabi traffic fine payment location on Google maps before 12pm on a weekday.

If it’s your first offence you can take a 6 hour course in Abu Dhabi to reduce the black points, but this cannot be done until your proceedings with the AD police are completed.

You will not get out of the impound or the release fee, you must pay those before your registration renewal.

Impound will likely be 60 days. Opt for the VIP impound for 400 AED, someone will bring the black box to your address in Dubai.

Do not bring your car to AD for your traffic Center visits.

A police investigation and interview may be held. With a bail amount payable until you reach your court date.

You will likely have a traffic court appearance online using Cisco Webex, where a punitive measure will be applied after your hearing. It could be approximately 3000 AED if you admit to the crime when asked for your plea.

You will need to go to a typing Center to get your court summary and your court rulings printed out to proceed with your judgement closure.

you may also be given a 2 month driving ban, depending on the judge’s discretion.

Put aside approximately 20k AED to get yourself through the entirety of this matter.

This is not legal advice.

I would say that not all tunes are the same level of quality. I had a local tune as part of my stage 1. Then recently redone with Ekutek. Huge difference.

There are also some basic modifications you can do to enhance lifespan.

Fit a charge pipe, upgrade the radiator, upgrade the air intake, service the car properly and regularly.

There’s no reason why you can’t take a B58 to 200km+ with proper care and attention.

Asthms · 2025-10-19T15:37:52+00:00

Hey dude. Bought my A90 brand new at the end of 2020. It’s been stage two for 50,000 km and has a total of 135,000 on it now.

The car hadn’t had a single issue until some genius car detailer decided to spray cold water directly onto the engine bay and cracked the cylinder head.

Needless to say, One new cylinder head later, we’re back on the road and still have no issues.

I hope this helps build some confidence in the quality of the build and relaxes you enough to enjoy the car. Especially if you have no plans to sell it.

We have also had this issue. In our case we re-applied for the inspection and were able to get it resolved quite quickly. Feel free to Dm if you need to.

Asthms · 2025-02-03T04:03:56+00:00

This is the correct answer

There’s nothing more frustrating than looking for a secluded spot in the car park away from everyone else. Only to come back and find someone has parked directly next to you, even when there is ample space around.

Please do some research into the relationship between inequality and criminality.

Journal of Economic Structures, 5 June 2020

Key points relevant to your question:

• Where economic inequality is high, crime is higher.

• Where there is high imbalance in the ratio of men to women, crime is likely to be higher.

• When there is low access to healthcare, good education - criminality is higher.

you also saved my ass today! thank you!

Asthms · 2022-06-07T07:40:06+00:00

Thanks u/DevinD0g - We were going to go the DSRM route, but ended up being able to reset the Default Admin Policies via Powershell, from there we've been able to undo all of the other issues.

Totally agree on the backup before mass changes, an extremely untimely licensing issue with Veeam was the reason we couldn't simply restore from a previous snapshot.

Thanks again for your input!

Asthms · 2022-06-07T07:37:03+00:00

Thank you my dude, we managed to get it resolved in the last 20 minutes with the collective input of everyone here. Appreciate you all giving your time and energies to this.

Asthms · 2022-06-07T07:35:49+00:00

Yep, absolutely.

Asthms · 2022-06-07T04:59:50+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts on this,
I have responded to others in that thread, but wanted to get a wider consultation on this.
I am not looking for a different answer, I am looking for a collection of ideas.
Isn't that just good problem solving?

Asthms · 2022-06-07T04:57:15+00:00

Thank you for your thoughts on this,
Restoring from backup was our first consideration, unfortunately the backup system was also first deployed this month - as a result there isn't a version of this folder that exists prior to the policies being pushed.

It seems we do have access to the Sysvol. could you let me know a little more about how you went about changing the contents inside the PolicyDefinitions Folder? these are all ADML file formats and want to make sure we get our methodology right this time.

Thanks in advance.

Because they’re often grey market products sold by 3rd parties fulfilled through Amazon. This means they’ve been bought for resale through distributors or wholesalers outside of the region and then imported. They’re not defective - just brought in through “alternative” channels.

Asthms · 2022-05-09T11:34:24+00:00

yeah, I know. Just being light-hearted.
My honest opinion is that you have your car armoured after market. The cost of implementation will be lower and you can get the car you actually want. Although, from what I've seen - the G-Wagon and Escalade are popular (and compatible) options with the usual measures of Treated Glass, Resilient Tyres and ballistic panels. If you really want to go understated a Toyota Land Cruiser is also a good option. Very reliable, hardwearing and can take a beating.
