  • Summer driving in the UAE any tips for a newcomer?

    I just moved to Dubai a few months ago and this will be my first full summer with a car. Back home I barely thought about maintenance, but I know the heat here is a whole different challenge. I’m trying to learn about protecting engine performance in UAE weather specifically. I’ve already read that keeping up with oil changes is even more critical here because the heat can break down oil faster. A friend mentioned that ignoring the early signs of bad oil, like the engine feeling rough or a drop in fuel economy, is a quick way to cause serious damage in this climate. For those who’ve been driving here for years, what are your top non negotiable habits for keeping your engine healthy through the peak summer months?
