I’m honestly stressed about finding a workshop that won’t overcharge or do a shoddy job. A colleague at work mentioned a company that offers a full range of services, including a free pickup and…Read more

Need some real feedback

So my car barely started this morning and with the summer heat really kicking in now, I know the battery’s on its last legs. I’ve been putting it off but I can’t risk getting stranded somewhere, especially with the family in the car. I’ve seen a few mobile…Read more

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 back within days both times, so I’ve learned m…Read more

The AC has been struggling and I think there’s something going on with the suspension too because it just doesn’t feel right going over the speed bumps near the marina. I took it to a general garage last time and…Read more

Every time we get a new shipment of parts, we end up with a mountain of cardboard that attracts cockroaches and breaks down in the humidity. I’ve been looking at getting…Read more

So a few weeks ago my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited started making this whining noise from the transmission area that got progressively louder whenever I was cruising on the highway in fifth gear and I was absolutely dreading what the dealer was going…Read more

I noticed some fluid on the garage floor under my 2016 Continental GT last week and when I took it to a local garage they said the front left shock is leaking and needs replacement, but they quoted me a price that seemed way too high for what should be a s…Read more

I found a company online that operates out of Studio City and claims to cover Abu Dhabi, but their website is https:batteryzoneuae.com/car-battery-replacement-studio-city/ and I’m not sure if they…Read more

I finally had the Brabus body kit and wheels installed on my G63 and I’m absolutely loving the look, but now I’m terrified of taking it to any old car wash because the carbon fiber parts and matte finishes seem super delicate. A guy at the dealership mentioned s…Read more

I’ve got a 2012 Rapide that’s started hesitating between second and third gear, and sometimes it gives a harsh thump when downshifting at low speeds, which makes me nervous because I’ve heard these ZF transmissions are generally solid but can get expensive if i…Read more

Regular wax seems to make it worse and I’ve heard you’re not supposed to use the same products on vinyl stripes as you do on paint. A guy at a car meet mentioned Chevrolet Camaro Detailing…Read more
