Dubai’s iconic skyline and world-class roads attract drivers of premium vehicles like BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and Lamborghini. However, beneath the luxury and speed lies a constant challenge: Dubai’s extreme climate conditions can significantly impact your car’s performance and lifespan.
At EuroHaus Auto Care in Dubai Investment Park (DIP), we regularly help owners deal with heat-related vehicle issues. This guide outlines how the UAE’s climate affects your car—and what proactive steps can keep your vehicle running smoothly.
High Temperatures: The Biggest Threat
Dubai’s summer temperatures regularly exceed 45°C.
Common Effects:
Engine overheating
Faster oil breakdown
Air conditioning system strain
Increased tire pressure
What You Can Do:
Schedule regular coolant system services
Replace oil more frequently with Dubai-grade lubricants
Monitor tire pressure using TPMS or manual checks

Dust and Sand: Silent Car Killers
Dubai’s dusty air may seem harmless, but it affects:
Air filters
Cabin filters
Brake components
Paint and exterior detailing
Preventive Steps:
Replace air and cabin filters more frequently. Explore major and minor services that cover these essentials.
Regularly clean brake calipers and pads to avoid premature wear.
Schedule professional polishing and detailing services to protect paint from sand abrasion.
Humidity and Coastal Exposure
While Dubai’s interior areas are dry, coastal humidity can still lead to:
Electrical system corrosion
Rust on underbody and joints
Fading interior materials
What We Recommend:
Schedule periodic pre-purchase inspections or general checkups.
Invest in anti-rust treatments and underbody cleaning.
Keep electrical systems healthy with regular computer diagnostics.
Battery and Charging System Stress
Heat and humidity reduce battery life faster than in cooler climates. Dubai drivers commonly face:
Battery failure in 1–2 years instead of 3–5 years.
Starter motor and alternator wear.
Solution:
Get your vehicle’s battery and charging system checked every 6 months, especially before and after summer.
Air Conditioning: A Critical Necessity
AC isn’t just a comfort feature in Dubai—it’s a survival essential. Common issues include:
Refrigerant leaks
Blocked condenser units
Foul cabin air due to mold
Avoid these by booking annual AC services with EuroHaus Auto Care.
Tire Wear and Pressure Fluctuations
Tires expand in heat, leading to:
Blowouts
Uneven tread wear
Premature aging
Best Practice:
Check tire pressure monthly.
Consider tire replacement services tailored for Dubai’s hot roads.
