A quiet, smooth ride is what you expect from a Range Rover. It’s one of the reasons people love driving them around Dubai. But what happens when your engine starts making strange sounds? Whether it’s a ticking, knocking, or whining noise, it can be hard to tell if it’s something serious or just a harmless quirk.
We meet many drivers at our garage who are unsure if they should be concerned. Some sounds might be normal. Others might need proper attention through Range Rover auto repair before they turn into expensive problems.
Living here means your car works hard. With long drives, busy roads, and high temperatures, regular car maintenance Dubai becomes a must, especially when it comes to engine health. Strange noises are usually your vehicle’s way of telling you something isn’t quite right.
At our car repair workshop Dubai, we see many luxury cars, especially Range Rovers, coming in for engine sound inspections. Some problems are simple, others more serious, but what’s common is that most of them started small and were ignored for too long. Listening early can save you time and money.
What Sounds Should You Watch Out For
Not all noises mean danger. But some can hint at issues under the hood. Here are a few sounds you might hear:
- A light tapping or ticking sound when you start the car
- A knocking sound when you speed up or go uphill
- A rough or rattling noise during idling
- Whining when you turn the steering wheel
- Hissing or steam-like sounds near the bonnet
These sounds can mean anything from low oil to belt problems, or even deeper engine trouble. While one odd noise doesn’t mean disaster, a pattern or worsening sound should never be ignored.
Why Do Engines Get Noisy
In many cases, noise happens when something isn’t working the way it should. Maybe the oil level is low or old. Maybe one of the belts is worn out or loose. The engine could be running too hot. Sometimes it’s just a dirty filter or weak spark plug. Other times it might be something inside the engine that needs a closer look.
The weather also plays a part. Dubai’s heat affects everything, including engine performance. Parts expand, fluids thin out, and wear happens faster.
What You Can Do About It
If your Range Rover starts sounding different, don’t wait too long. Try to notice:
- When the sound happens — at start, during driving, when idle
- Whether it gets worse over time
- If it happens only during hot weather or all the time
Even if you’re not sure what it means, have someone check it. A quick visit to your workshop can make a big difference. The earlier you act, the easier it is to fix.
Don’t Try to Guess
We know it can be tempting to search online and try to figure it out yourself. But with cars, guessing can make things worse. If you keep driving with a damaged part, it may affect other parts too. What could have been a small repair turns into a full engine job — and that’s not something anyone wants.
Choosing the Right People for the Job
When it comes to Range Rovers, you need people who know what they’re doing. Not every garage is equipped or experienced with luxury vehicles. That’s why we always remind people to go where their car will be treated with care and skill.
At Munich Motor Works, we’ve worked with Range Rovers for years. Our team doesn’t just open the bonnet and poke around. We listen to the engine, run full checks, and explain what’s going on in a way you’ll understand. No tricks, no pressure, just honest answers and good work.
Keep Your Engine Happy and Quiet
Most engine noises can be avoided with basic care. Keep up with oil changes. Stick to your service schedule. Ask your mechanic to check belts, spark plugs, filters, and coolant regularly. Even something as simple as using good quality fuel can make a big difference.
Also, during summer, try not to push your car too hard in peak heat. Give your engine time to rest, and don’t ignore any new or weird sounds. The sooner you check it, the better.
