Oil Change Service jobs we do
Engine oil and filter change
We drain the old oil, fit a new filter and refill with the grade and amount your engine calls for, then reset the service reminder. It is due at the interval your service indicator or service book shows, or sooner if the car spends a lot of time idling in traffic.
Mobil, Castrol or genuine oil
We supply Mobil or Castrol oil in the exact grade and approval your engine needs, such as MB 229 or BMW Longlife specifications, priced by engine size. Mercedes-Benz and BMW owners can also choose genuine factory oil. Current package prices are shown in the offers section below.
Fluid and filter check
While the car is in, we check the coolant, brake fluid and washer fluid and top them up. We also look at the air and cabin filters, which clog quickly in Dubai dust, and tell you on WhatsApp if they need replacing.
Oil Change Service questions
How much is an oil change in Dubai?
A Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil change with a new filter costs from AED 295 including VAT. Bigger engines take more oil, and genuine Mercedes-Benz or BMW oil costs more. Send us your make and model on WhatsApp and we will confirm the price for your engine.
How often should I change the engine oil in Dubai heat?
Every 5,000 to 7,500 km, or whatever your owner manual states. Summer heat, constant AC and stop-start traffic are hard on oil, so stay at the shorter end if you mostly drive in town. If you are not sure what suits your car, ask us on WhatsApp.
Which oil do you use?
We use Mobil or Castrol oil in the grade and approval your engine needs. For Mercedes-Benz and BMW you can also choose the carmaker's genuine factory oil. Current package prices are listed in the offers section below.
What happens if I leave the oil change too long?
Old oil breaks down in the heat, protects the engine less and can leave sludge in the oil passages. On turbocharged engines, which most modern German cars have, that speeds up wear on the turbo and the timing chain parts, both far more expensive to fix than an oil change.
Do you fit genuine or OEM oil filters?
You choose. A genuine filter comes in the carmaker's box, and an OEM filter is made to the same specification by a company that supplies carmakers, usually for less. Either is fine for the engine as long as it is the right part for your car.
Can I wait while my oil change is completed?
Yes. An oil change takes about 45 to 60 minutes. We have a comfortable air-conditioned customer lounge with a snooker table where you can relax or play a game of snooker while we complete the service.
Do you collect the car?
Yes, free, anywhere in Dubai during working hours. We collect the car from your home or office, from Dubai Marina and JLT to Downtown, Business Bay, Mirdif and Dubai Silicon Oasis.
