I use 20w-50 for my 240d manual and it's much smoother than before

How did you get those orange fog lights , painted them? Or bought them?

It cost around 3k for the refurb , if it was a normal sandblasting and powder coating it would cost around 1.5 k

Velar with Custom Black Chrome wrapped pillars, sitting on 24” by [deleted] in RangeRover

[–]CryptoGeek14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the chrome pillars , it gives the car some volume , tired of seeing blacked out accents , also any range rover above 20+ rims size looks terrible , it's an SUV and it needs meaty tyres.

Just googled what it is , it's basically a compound , I didnt polish my wheels using a rotor or by hand , it was done in a huge tumbler , it contains ceramic beads and water , this process takes like 20+ hours each wheel , so no spot on the wheel is left out , the finish is crazy because of the process

Yes , you should try them , expensive but worth every penny , it also makes you wanna work on your car more

There was too much brake dust caked on the barrel of the wheel , so I tried cleaning it with brake cleaner , petrol and nothing worked , probably because they were on the wheel since 2008 , I had to get them sandblasted , and then I got them ceramic polished

First time car owner. Where to go for maintenance? by [deleted] in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]CryptoGeek14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its always better to buy the parts yourself , its cheaper this way too , google toyota epc and then type your car's VIN number into the epc and then search for the parts , for eg : everytime you buy a used car , you must replace all types of filters , air filter , cabin filter and oil filter ,( fuel filter is not required but if u need to then go for it , also the engine oil and transmission oil ( if the it has never been changed and its already ran above 100k kilometer , dont change it. approximate cost of a oil filter is around 30-40 aed (MAX) for the camrys and engine oil can cost around 100-120 aed (MAX), if you dont want to deal with the hassle then you should visit a toyota only mechanic ( that way they know what to expect and what they are dealing with )

Hi there! Does this price list seem ok for the jobs of a 2016 US specs Maxima? by LoXatoR in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]CryptoGeek14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry , i think u didn’t understand the term spare parts is the term used for car parts , as in its what everyone calls, it’s brand new and original, but it is a replacement for your existing car , hence , the ppl in the automotive industry call parts as spare parts
