Frequently Asked Questions
Get quick answers to common questions about our car repair services in Ajman.
In the UAE hot climate, we recommend changing your car oil every 5,000 to 7,500 kilometers or every 3-4 months, whichever comes first. The extreme heat accelerates oil breakdown, so more frequent changes help protect your engine.
Common reasons include low refrigerant levels, clogged cabin filters, faulty compressor, or blocked condenser. Our Ajman garage offers free AC diagnostics to identify the exact issue. Most AC problems can be fixed same-day.
Squeaking brakes usually indicate worn brake pads, which need immediate replacement. Ignoring this warning can damage your rotors and compromise safety. Visit our Ajman workshop for a free brake inspection.
Don not panic, but also don not ignore it. The check engine light can indicate various issues from a loose gas cap to serious engine problems. Our OBD-II diagnostic scanner can read the exact error codes. Drive carefully to our Ajman garage for professional diagnosis.
In UAE extreme heat, car batteries typically last 2-3 years compared to 4-5 years in cooler climates. We recommend testing your battery every 6 months. Our garage provides free battery health checks.
Key items checked include: lights (all must work), brakes, tires (minimum 1.6mm tread), emissions, horn, and windshield wipers. We offer a comprehensive Tasjeel preparation package that ensures your vehicle passes on the first attempt.
We recommend automatic transmission fluid change every 60,000-100,000 km. However, in UAE stop-and-go traffic conditions, consider servicing at 40,000-50,000 km to extend transmission life.
A pre-purchase inspection reveals hidden problems like accident damage, flood damage, or mechanical issues that sellers may not disclose. Our 150-point inspection is an affordable investment that can save you thousands in future repairs.
We accept cash, all major credit/debit cards (Visa, Mastercard), bank transfers, and Apple Pay. We also offer installment plans for major repairs through select partners.
Yes! All our repairs come with a warranty. Parts are covered by manufacturer warranty (typically 12 months), and our workmanship is guaranteed for 6 months or 10,000 km, whichever comes first.
ECU (Engine Control Unit) programming involves updating or modifying the software that controls your car engine and other systems. You may need ECU programming after a module replacement, to unlock new features, fix electronic glitches, or optimize performance. Our Ajman workshop uses dealer-level software for BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and other European brands.
Service times vary: oil change takes 30-45 minutes, AC recharge 1-2 hours, brake pad replacement 1-2 hours, full service 3-4 hours, and ECU programming 2-4 hours. Most common services are completed same-day. We recommend booking an appointment to minimize wait times.
