    Starting to realize my garage isn't going to cut it anymore

    I've been running a small online business selling custom-printed t-shirts and hoodies from my garage in Ajman for about two years now, and I think I've finally hit the point where I need to admit that this space just isn't working. I've got boxes of blank shirts stacked on one side, printing...

    Sent this to my buddy who's too stubborn to ask for help

    I got a buddy who works construction over in Orange County and he's the type that thinks asking for help is some kind of weakness. He got hurt a few weeks ago, messed up his shoulder pretty bad on a site, and he's been trying to handle all the paperwork and phone calls himself even though he's...

    First time solo traveler feeling a bit overwhelmed by options

    Okay so I finally booked my flights to Casablanca and now I'm staring at a blank page trying to figure out where to actually go for the six full days I have before flying back out. I keep going back and forth between wanting to see Fes and Meknes or heading south towards the coast and maybe...

    Tiguan brake pads wearing unevenly

    So I took my 2021 Tiguan for a tyre rotation last week at a shop in Qusais and the guy called me over to show me that the front inner brake pads are almost down to nothing while the outer pads still have plenty of life left. He mentioned something about possible caliper issues or maybe just...

    How do you tell the difference between a minor squeak and a major problem?

    My car has developed this faint chirping noise when I go over speed bumps or uneven pavement. It is not loud, but now that I have noticed it, I cannot unhear it. The car drives perfectly fine, no vibrations, no warning lights, just this annoying little sound coming from the suspension area. I am...

    Waiting days for a simple car fix is driving me insane

    I honestly don't understand why some shops take forever just to diagnose a check engine light. My car has been sitting at a shop since Monday and they still haven't given me a straight answer. I run errands for work, so every day my car is down, I lose money. I was reading about faster vehicle...

    Ever since having kids I see the road completely differently

    I never really worried much about car maintenance before becoming a parent. I would just wait until something broke or until the oil light came on. But now with my little one in the backseat, I find myself obsessing over every little sound and vibration. Last week I heard a weird squeak when...

    My car battery died without warning because I ignored the light

    I feel like such an idiot. My battery light came on a few days ago, but it was intermittent, so I just assumed it was a glitch and kept driving. Well, yesterday in the middle of evening traffic near Rolla, my car just shut down. Everything went dark. It was scary and dangerous. I had no idea...

    Is there a solid checklist anywhere for what actually needs servicing here vs back home?

    Just moved here a few months ago and I'm trying to get my head around car upkeep. Where I'm from, the main worries were road salt in winter and general moisture. Here it feels completely different with the heat and the sand. My battery died without warning last week and the guy at the garage...
