Got quoted for a timing chain and now I'm scared to approve it

My A4 started making this faint rattling noise on cold starts a few weeks back and I finally got it looked at, the guy said it's the timing chain and gave me a quote that I've been staring at for two days now. I trust the diagnosis but the number is big enough that I want a second opinion before I h...

Anyone in Business Bay had this done at their tower? Worried about access

Been putting off the battery swap for weeks now because my building's parking has that ramp barrier and visitors need to be signed in at reception, so I keep imagining some poor technician getting stuck outside while I'm on the 14th floor. The battery in my Tucson is definitely on its last legs thou...

Transmission slipping when cold, fine once warm, what is going on?

Noticed over the last few weeks that my automatic feels like it's slipping slightly when I first start driving in the morning, the revs climb a bit before it engages and there's a delay going from reverse to drive. Once the car is warm after five or ten minutes everything is completely normal, shift...

Brake pads at 40k, dealer says replace now, indie says I've got time

Had my Q3 in for its regular service and the dealer flagged that my front pads are at 3mm and told me it's urgent, must replace immediately, safety issue, the whole speech. I get that 3mm isn't great but I've done maybe 40k km which feels early for pads to be done, and the car brakes perfectly fine,...

Two years of parking under a tree and I'm paying for it now

I never thought much about where I parked, my building has these shaded spots under some kind of ficus trees and I grabbed them because they kept the car cooler, seemed like a win. Two years later my bonnet and roof are covered in this sticky residue that attracts dust like a magnet, plus tiny sap s...

Finally found a place that doesn't treat my old 5 series like a burden

I've been driving a 2009 530i for about four years now and finding a garage that actually wants to work on an older BMW has been a nightmare. Most places either quote silly money because they assume you're desperate or they fob you off with generic parts that cause more problems down the line. Last ...

Stumbled on this Palo Alto bathroom remodel link, anyone know if they're legit?

I'm based in Dubai for work but I've got a rental property in Palo Alto that needs its only bathroom redone before the next tenant moves in, and I've been putting off dealing with it because doing a remodel from 8,000 miles away feels insane. Last night I was googling around and ended up on https://...

Anyone found a reliable BMW shop near ICAD they actually trust?

My 2016 420i is due for its next service and I've been dragging my feet because the last two places I tried both left me feeling like I'd wasted my money. One used a generic oil filter and the other didn't reset the service light, and neither of them could explain what they'd actually done when I as...

Driveline clunk after 2.5 inch lift, who can balance a driveshaft properly?

I lifted my 2016 Wrangler about three months ago and ever since there has been this clunk when I shift from park to drive or when I let off the gas at low speed, plus a vibration that comes in around 60 to 70 km/h that was never there before. I replaced the U-joints myself thinking that would fix it...

Need both a puncture fixed and new tyres fitted, any fast options in Sharjah?

I've got a bit of a situation. My front tyre has a slow puncture and the rear two are pretty much done anyway, so I figured I'd just get everything sorted in one go. Problem is I don't have time to sit at a tyre shop for hours, and I've had bad experiences with places that take forever. A friend men...
