GT's clutch is feeling heavy – time for a specialist?

I've had my Mustang GT for about four years now and it's been an absolute joy, but recently I've noticed the clutch pedal is feeling significantly heavier than it used to, and there's a slight notchiness when I'm shifting gears that wasn't there before. It's not slipping or making any horrible ...

New Mini owner here, any tips on keeping the paint looking good?

I finally joined the Mini club and I'm absolutely in love with my little car, it's a bright blue Cooper S with the contrasting white roof and mirrors and it just puts a smile on my face every time I look at it. The thing is, I've never owned a car with such a vibrant colour before and I'm genuinely ...

Can a ripped leather seat actually be repaired or is it replacement time?

I'm pretty gutted about what happened to my car's interior this weekend. I had a friend's kid in the back seat and they must have had something sharp in their pocket because when they got out, I noticed this nasty tear in the leather on the rear seat cushion that's about two inches long and clearly ...

Battery keeps dying overnight – need a fast alternator repair in Abu Dhabi

I'm getting really frustrated with my 2018 Nissan Patrol, because I've had to jumpstart it three times this week and the battery is practically new, so I know that's not the problem. The car runs fine during the day, but if I leave it parked overnight, the battery is completely dead by morning, and ...

Need a sturdy trolley for our restaurant supply deliveries

I run a small restaurant supply business in Dubai and we deliver everything from bulk bags of rice and flour to crates of fresh vegetables and heavy canned goods to restaurants across the city. Our delivery team is constantly complaining about the cheap trolleys we're using now, which have wobbly ...

Searching for experienced Mustang AC service in Sharjah – any recommendations?

Honestly, I'm at my wit's end with my Mustang's air conditioning. It's been a nightmare for the past few weeks – one day it's blowing ice cold, the next it's just warm air, and now it's warm constantly no matter what I do. I've already had it re-gassed twice at a local garage, but the problem came ...

Volvo XC60 feels sluggish lately, not throwing any codes though

My 2018 XC60 T5 has been feeling a bit off for the past month or so, nothing dramatic enough to trigger a check engine light but the throttle response isn't as sharp as it used to be and there's a slight hesitation when accelerating from a stop that wasn't there before. Fuel economy has also dropped ...

Dagenite batteries, are they actually British made or just branded that way?

I've been seeing Dagenite batteries pop up in a few shops around Sharjah lately and the branding definitely gives off that premium British engineering vibe, but I'm a bit skeptical about whether these are actually manufactured in the UK or if it's just clever marketing on a product that comes from ...

Anyone in Sharjah found a Mustang specialist who actually knows manual transmissions?

I'm trying to get my 2015 Mustang GT's MT-82 transmission sorted and honestly, I'm having a nightmare finding a workshop in Sharjah that really knows these gearboxes. The car's been grinding a bit going into third gear, especially when it's cold, and I've read online that these transmissions can ...

Any Maserati owners found a reliable brake specialist in Dubai?

I've got a 2017 Levante that I absolutely love, but the brake pedal has started feeling a bit spongy and I can hear a faint grinding noise at low speeds, which I'm pretty sure means the pads are due for replacement. I've been quoted some eye-watering prices by the dealer, and I'd rather find a good ...
