You search "luxury car garage Dubai" on Google. You see three garages with 4.8 stars, two with 4.5, and one with 3.9. The answer seems obvious: go with 4.8.
European engineers design cars for European conditions: temperate climates, moderate speeds, well-maintained roads with gradual transitions, and predictable driving patterns.
Nobody talks about brake fluid. It's not exciting. It doesn't make noise when it goes wrong. It doesn't trigger a warning light until it's critically low. It just quietly absorbs moisture, quietly low
That sentence has caused more engine damage than most people realise. Because not all 5W-30 is the same. And the oil that's perfect for a Toyota Camry will slowly destroy a Porsche flat-six.
Every summer in Dubai, thousands of car owners visit their nearest garage with the same complaint: "The A/C isn't cold enough." And nearly every one of them is told the same thing: "We'll recharge the
Modern luxury cars have between 50 and 80 distinct warning lights. Most owners recognise five or six. The rest are mysteries — and in a moment of panic, mysteries become expensive decisions.
Not every story needs a hero. Sometimes the story is a reminder that the simplest explanation is usually the right one — even on a AED 1,200,000 supercar.

You park your Porsche Macan in the underground garage after a 30-minute drive in Dubai traffic. You switch off the engine, step out, and hear it: the cooling fans running at what sounds like full spee
In a Rolls-Royce, you feel everything. That's the point. The cabin is engineered to be so quiet and so isolated that the occupants exist in a bubble of silence. Which means when something is wrong — e
If you own a Ferrari 458 in Dubai and your dashboard hasn't gone sticky yet, it will. This isn't speculation — it's a documented phenomenon affecting virtually every 458 (and several other Ferrari and
Track mode on a McLaren 720S transforms the car. Suspension drops, damping stiffens, throttle sharpens, transmission holds gears — the car goes from GT cruiser to track weapon at the press of a button
The automotive industry is awash with AI claims. "AI-powered diagnostics." "Machine learning fault detection." "Predictive maintenance algorithms." Most of it is marketing. Some of it is real. And the
Your luxury car has more computing power than the Apollo spacecraft. The engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, climate, infotainment, and safety systems all run on software. And like any software,
The days of a car battery being a simple lead-acid box are gone. A modern luxury car battery is managed by a computer that controls how it charges, how it discharges, when it protects itself, and how
Most car owners never think about transmission fluid until the transmission fails. By then, the fluid has been trying to tell them something for 20,000-40,000 km.
When your 2008 Porsche 997 Turbo needs a specific turbo oil feed line, or your 2006 Mercedes CLS 63 AMG needs an engine mount that's been discontinued, the repair itself isn't the hard part. Finding t
Not all luxury car suspensions are created equal. And the differences matter enormously in Dubai, where heat, speed bumps, and road surface temperatures conspire to age suspension components at an acc
Every turbocharged luxury car in Dubai is fighting a war of thermodynamics. The turbocharger takes exhaust gas at 900-1,050°C, spins a shaft at up to 250,000 RPM on a bearing floating in oil film thin
Every luxury car built in the last 20 years runs on a Controller Area Network — CAN bus. It's the communication backbone that lets your engine, transmission, ABS, airbags, climate control, infotainmen
The OEM-vs-aftermarket debate generates more heat than light. Dealers say aftermarket parts will destroy your car. Independent garages say OEM parts are overpriced. Both are partly right and mostly wr

Buying a used luxury car in Dubai is a AED 100,000-500,000 decision that most people make in 30 minutes based on a test drive and a gut feeling.
Your car's service history isn't just a record. It's a story. And like any story, it has a narrative, gaps, and sometimes outright fiction.
You check your oil. You check your tyres. Maybe you glance at the coolant level. That covers about 30% of what Dubai's climate attacks on your luxury car.
It sounds like superstition: "My car breaks after I wash it."
The Bentayga's 6.0-litre twin-turbo W12 produces enough heat to warm a small building. At highway speed, airflow through the radiator pack handles this heat comfortably. In Dubai summer traffic, at 5
Some faults have a logic so specific that they sound made up. This is one of them.
Some problems aren't in the car. They're in the environment.

The DB11 V12 is one of the most beautiful engines in automotive history. 5.2 litres, twin-turbocharged, 608 PS — Aston Martin's first in-house twin-turbo V12, replacing the naturally aspirated units s

"If you service your car anywhere other than our authorized center, your warranty will be void."
