Battery replacement, battery jump-start, flat tyre replacement, tyre puncture repair, tyre air top-up, buy tyres (delivered + fitted), towing, car lockout, mobile car wash, car detailing, ceramic coating & PPF, vehicle inspection, roadside assistance and garage booking for workshop-grade repairs.

Yes — battery replacements include ECU registration for European cars (BMW, Mercedes, Audi, most 2015+ VW Group). Runflat tyres and staggered fitments supported for M-cars, AMG and BMW performance models.

Yes for 12V system work (battery, tyres, TPMS, ABS), tyres, wash and towing. Full HV-battery diagnostics still requires the OEM dealer tool.

Yes. Choose from Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone, Continental, Goodyear, Yokohama, Hankook, Dunlop and value brands. Delivered and fitted at your parking bay the same day starting from AED 400 fitted — includes balancing, TPMS reset and old-tyre disposal.

Use Garage Booking — browse verified UAE workshops in the QARO app, get transparent quotes, book a slot. Pickup-drop available in most areas.

Yes — mobile OBD-II scan by a certified technician at your car in ~60 minutes, starting from AED 100. Reads engine, transmission, ABS, airbag and body codes; generates a digital report emailed on completion.

Book on-demand or schedule a slot.

Anything that does not need a ramp or a workshop bay: battery, tyres and TPMS, air top-up, wiper and bulb replacement, fluid top-ups, OBD diagnostics, inspection, wash and detailing. A certified technician brings the parts and tools to the car, average dispatch under 8 minutes.

Not mobile — those need a workshop ramp and alignment rig, and QARO does not pretend otherwise. Use Garage Booking in the app to browse verified UAE workshops, compare transparent quotes and book a slot, with pickup and drop available in most areas.

Tyre pressure and tread (UAE heat raises pressure and accelerates wear), battery health if it is over two years old, engine oil level, coolant, and wiper and washer fluid. A 23-point pre-trip vehicle inspection at your location, starting from AED 325, checks the lot and emails you a report.

For routine items, yes — battery, tyres, diagnostics and inspection are the same jobs at a fixed AED price without the dealership drop-off. For warranty-bound work, recalls and complex engine or transmission repair, stay with the dealer or use Garage Booking. QARO parts carry a manufacturer warranty.

Yes for 12V system work — the auxiliary battery, tyres, TPMS, brakes-adjacent checks, wash and towing all apply to hybrids and EVs. High-voltage battery diagnostics still needs the manufacturer tool, so that goes to a dealer or a Garage Booking workshop.

Apple Pay, Google Pay, all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, AMEX). International cards accepted with 3D Secure. Cash accepted in select areas. VAT invoice generated in-app for every booking.

Yes — set a company name and TRN in your QARO profile and every booking auto-generates a VAT invoice in the company's name. Ideal for expense claims and fleet operators.

Upfront — you see the fixed AED price before you confirm. No surprise fees at the door. If parts vary based on inspection (e.g. tyre size unknown), the app quotes a range and confirms the exact price before dispatch.

Not currently — QARO is on-demand pay-per-use so you only pay for the services you actually book. Fleet operators can request a corporate account with volume pricing.

Every QARO technician is background-verified and trained on the specific service they perform. Battery and tyre technicians are OEM-certified with calibrated torque tools.

Yes — manufacturer warranty on parts (typically 24 months for batteries, 12 months for tyres) plus a workmanship warranty on labour. All warranty terms visible in the app before booking.

QARO carries full liability insurance for on-site work. Any damage caused during a QARO service is repaired at no cost to you — reported through the app for immediate action.

Yes — the AED price you see in the app is what you pay. Fitting, balancing, TPMS reset, disposal, VAT are all included in the quoted price.

CAFU is subscription-based scheduled fuel delivery (overnight fills for fleets). QARO is on-demand roadside — battery, tyre, jump-start, tow, wash and more, delivered when you need them. QARO does not sell fuel or engine oil.

Service My Car is a pickup-drop workshop marketplace for major services. QARO does mobile-to-you services (battery, tyre, wash) plus garage booking. Use both — QARO for the routine, Service My Car for the once-a-year major service.

Dealer service centres charge OEM warranty premiums (2-3× QARO) and require you to leave the car for the day. QARO is 40-60% cheaper on like-for-like services, mobile-to-you, no time off work. Use QARO for out-of-warranty work; use the dealer for anything that would void OEM warranty.

Al Quoz workshops are cheapest for cash walk-ins on older cars. QARO is fixed AED price, mobile-to-you, VAT invoice, warranty on parts and work. Use Al Quoz when convenience doesn't matter and you already know the shop.
