Ferrari Service Dubai: Specialist Repair Workshop

Our Ferrari service and repair work spans the 9 systems below, from routine servicing to the hybrid models. A card gives the short version of each.

The common problems on a Ferrari are the 6 below, from brake and fuel parts to rear glass and gearbox leaks. Five are recalls in the UAE, Qatar or Saudi Arabia, on models from the 458 to the 296. Every item gives the fault, the cars it touches and our action.

• Brake fluid reservoir cap: a 2022 Qatar recall covers models of 2010 to 2019. They are the 458 Italia, Spider, Speciale and Speciale A, the 488 GTB and Spider, and the J50. The cap can fail to vent the reservoir and cut braking efficiency. We refer an open recall to a Ferrari dealer.
• Fuel vapour separator: a 2019 Qatar recall covers 488 GTB, Spider and Pista and 812 Superfast models of 2015 to 2019. The part can leak fuel. Saudi Arabia recalled 31 Ferraris of 2018 to 2019 for the same part. We check for fuel smell and leaks and refer the recall.
• 296 fuel tank pipe: a 2023 UAE recall covers 43 cars of the 296 GTB and 296 GTS, made in 2022 and 2023. The aluminium pipe can corrode where it touches the high-voltage battery cover and leak fuel. A Ferrari dealer fits the new pipe, so we refer the car.
• Rear glass bonding: a 2020 UAE recall replaces the rear window on 96 812 Superfast cars of 2018 to 2020. Qatar recalled the 2020 F8 Tributo in 2021 for too little adhesive on the rear screen above the engine. We inspect the glass and refer the recall.
• Passenger airbag module: Qatar recalled 458 and FF models of 2008 to 2011 in 2017 to replace the module. We check the car's campaign status and pass the module swap to a Ferrari dealer.
• DCT gearbox oil leaks: Ferrari has issued leak repair procedures for the DCT of the 458, California, California T, FF, 488 GTB and 488 Spider. We trace the leak and replace the seal, gasket or filter at fault.

We work on recent Ferrari models, from the V6 hybrids to the V12s:

• 296 GTB (F163 V6)
• 296 GTS
• SF90 Stradale and Spider
• SF90 XX Stradale (F154FB)
• F80 (F163CF V6)
• 849 Testarossa (F154FC)
• F8 Tributo (3902 cc V8)
• Roma
• Portofino M (3855 cc V8)
• Amalfi (F154 V8)
• 812 Superfast (6.5 litre V12)
• 812 Competizione (F140HB)
• Daytona SP3 (F140HC)
• 12Cilindri (F140HD)
• Purosangue (F140IA)

The Roma, Portofino M, Amalfi, 12Cilindri and Purosangue use an 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The 812 Competizione and the Daytona SP3 keep a 7-speed unit.

A Ferrari service in Dubai falls due every 20,000 km or every 12 months under the maintenance programme Ferrari runs in all markets. The "Service" lamp on the instrument panel marks these fixed-interval checks. Engine oil and filter follow a separate interval, which the Ferrari Predictive Maintenance algorithm calculates.

That oil interval never runs past 24 months or 20,000 km from the previous oil change. The F8 Tributo is among the cars in the Predictive Maintenance programme.

We work to both intervals: the fixed checks when the Service lamp lights, and the oil and filter change when their own interval ends.

Each Ferrari job at our workshop runs in 4 steps.

The practices below shape how we handle a Ferrari.
