Filters & Fluids for Every Make and Model

Manufacturer handbooks often list a range of viscosities depending on climate, and many workshops in the UAE lean toward the thicker end of that range (for example 5W-40 or 5W-30 rather than 0W-20) to cope with sustained high temperatures. Tell us your make, model, and year and we will confirm the grade that matches your handbook.

Dust and sand load the cabin filter faster here than in cleaner climates, so many owners replace it every 10,000 to 15,000km rather than waiting for the standard interval. A blocked filter is one of the most common (and cheapest to fix) reasons for weak AC airflow.

It will not damage the engine, but it dilutes the properties of whichever oil is already in the sump. For a proper top-up or change, it is best to use the same oil type and grade already in the engine, or do a full oil change if you are switching types.

In most cases, yes. Filters and fluids are less model-specific than body or engine parts, so we can usually match a filter by cross-reference even on older vehicles. Send the model year and, if you have it, the filter part number from the housing.
