Any honest mechanics left in this city? Feeling a bit lost.
I'm really hoping someone here can point me in the right direction because I've been burned a couple of times now by workshops that promised the world and then either overcharged me or didn't even fix the problem properly. My daily driver has been acting up, nothing catastrophic, just some weird hesitation and a rough idle that's driving me crazy, and I'm dreading the process of finding a decent garage that won't try to take advantage of me. I've read a few articles online about how to spot a reliable place and they all mention things like looking for certified technicians and checking if they use genuine parts, which makes sense, but it's hard to know who actually follows through on that without some real-world feedback . I'm based in Abu Dhabi and I just want a workshop where I can build a relationship and not have to worry about being ripped off every time I walk through the door. Ideally, I'd love to find a trusted car garage in Abu Dhabi that's known for being straight with people, especially when it comes to diagnosing issues accurately rather than just replacing parts at random. Has anyone had a genuinely good experience with a place that actually explains what's wrong and fixes it without creating new problems? I'm willing to travel a bit if it means getting honest service for a change.
