What We Do for Your Hyundai

The seven jobs Hyundai owners book most, each with its own page. Open the full details below for everything else we do on the Hyundai range.

What it covers

Hyundai repair in Dubai: our services by system

From scheduled servicing to the hybrid models, the cards below set out the work we carry out on each Hyundai system.

Hyundai major and minor service

A minor service renews the engine oil and filter and runs the inspections due at that distance. A major service adds the longer items on Hyundai's schedule, such as spark plugs and coolant. We carry out each item the schedule lists for the car's distance.

Hyundai oil services

Our oil service refills each engine to the grade and capacity Hyundai lists, with a new filter. The Smartstream G2.0 of an Elantra coded CN7 takes 4.3 litres of 5W-30 to ACEA A5/B5 in Hyundai's Middle East specification. A Palisade coded LX3 takes 5.8 litres of 0W-30.

Hyundai engine repair

We find the source of oil leaks, coolant leaks and sensor faults on Hyundai's Smartstream petrol engines, then repair it. The work runs from the G1.6 T-GDI of the Elantra coded CN7 to the 2,497 cc G2.5 of the Sonata coded DN8. Engine rebuilds and engine replacements go to a Hyundai dealer.

Hyundai transmission service and gearbox inspection

Hyundai fits automatic, IVT and dual-clutch gearboxes, and each takes its own fluid. On an Elantra coded CN7, the IVT uses SP-CVT1 and the automatic uses SP4M-1. We check the fluid and the stored gearbox faults, then repair the leak, sensor or part at fault.

Hyundai brake repair

On a Tucson coded NX4e, the pad wear indicator gives a high-pitched squeal when the pads are worn. Hyundai has those pads replaced as complete front or rear axle sets, and we fit them that way. An Elantra coded CN7 gets DOT-4 LV fluid when we renew its brake fluid.

Hyundai suspension repair and wheel alignment

We renew worn control arms, bushes, ball joints and shock absorbers and finish with the wheel and steering alignment. A Palisade coded LX3 holds its ride height with a self-levelizer, a hydraulic system inside the shock absorber. We check those units for leaks and replace a leaking one.

Hyundai AC service and repair

We find and repair refrigerant leaks and replace failed compressors, condensers and valves, then recharge the system. On the Elantra coded CN7, Hyundai lists R-134a for the Middle East, at 550 g with PAG oil.

Hyundai battery replacement and electrical repair

Battery and charging output are tested first, and we replace a failed battery with one of the type the car carries. The AGM battery of an Elantra coded CN7 goes on an AGM charger, never a general one. Wiring, lamp and sensor faults are traced to the circuit at fault and repaired.

Hyundai hybrid and EV service

On the Elantra Hybrid, the Tucson hybrid and the Palisade Hybrid coded LX3 HEV, we service the petrol engine, brakes and suspension. High-voltage work goes to a Hyundai dealer, from the 300 V battery of the Palisade Hybrid to every IONIQ 5 or IONIQ 6 battery job.

What we see

What are the common problems on a Hyundai?

The common problems on a Hyundai below touch its engines, fuel system, gearboxes and electrics. They cover engine bearing noise, a high-pressure fuel pump, dual-clutch judder, the Tucson leaving Park, battery drain on the Kona and brake module shorts. Each line names the fault and the models, then the step our workshop takes.

  • Engine bearing noise: Hyundai's knock sensor software detects it on the Theta II 2.4 MPI of the Santa Fe coded CM. The Nu 2.0 GDI of the Tucson coded TL has the same software. The engine lamp blinks, code P132600 is stored and the engine enters Engine Protection Mode. Our next step is to read the code, then hand the car to a Hyundai dealer for the software and any engine claim.
  • High-pressure fuel pump: a recall in Qatar covers Elantra cars made 2017 to 2023 for a warning lamp with code P0088 and a pump malfunction. We confirm code P0088 and send the car to a Hyundai dealer for the recall.
  • Dual-clutch judder: Hyundai has acknowledged low-speed vibration on the 1.6T dual-clutch gearbox of the Tucson coded TL and the Kona coded OS. Hyundai's fix is a TCU update and, where the clutch is worn, a new double clutch. We read the gearbox faults and refer that work to a Hyundai dealer.
  • Tucson leaving Park: a recall in Qatar covers 2024 to 2025 Tucson NX4 cars with the shift-by-wire selector. On these, a harness can touch the gear lock. In Saudi Arabia, a recall covers 2,577 Tucson cars of the 2025 model for internal wiring that can let the car move in Park. We refer both to a Hyundai dealer for the recall.
  • Kona battery drain: on a Kona coded SX2, faulty logic can keep the taillights lit after the car is parked and switched off. We charge or replace the flat battery and refer the car to a Hyundai dealer for the Body Domain Controller software update.
  • Brake control unit shorts: a recall in Qatar covers the 2015 to 2018 Tucson for a short in the hydraulic electronic control unit. That short carries an engine bay fire risk. Another Qatar recall covers the 2015 to 2018 Santa Fe for a short inside the ABS module. We refer both to a Hyundai dealer for the recall work.

In depth

When is a Hyundai service due on Hyundai's Middle East schedule?

A Hyundai on Hyundai's Middle East schedule has its oil and filter renewed at 10,000 km or 12 months on an Elantra coded CN7. A fuel additive goes in at the same interval. The Sonata coded DN8 keeps 10,000 km or 12 months for both its G2.5 GDi and G2.5 T-GDi engines.

Hyundai runs 2 schedules: a normal one, and a severe one for cars driven in the conditions it lists. On the Tucson NX4, Hyundai applies the severe schedule when any condition on that list is met.

On the Elantra coded CN7, the first coolant change comes at 195,000 km or 120 months, with later changes at 30,000 km or 24 months. Spark plugs on its G2.0 engine are renewed every 150,000 km. The battery is inspected every 10,000 km or 6 months, and the UAE eCall battery, where fitted, is replaced every 4 years.

For a Hyundai service in Dubai, we match each car to the normal or severe schedule by how it is driven.

Prevention

How Hyundai service in Dubai works at Royal Prince Auto Care

Each Hyundai service in Dubai runs through these steps at our DIP 2 workshop.

Scan each control unit and note the distance

We scan every control unit for stored fault codes and set the car's distance against Hyundai's schedule.

Find the cause behind each code

A code leads to a circuit, not a part, so each one is followed to the wiring, sensor or component behind it.

Repair the fault and service the car

We replace the faulty part, carry out the schedule items due and clear the stored codes.

Road-test and scan once more

The car is driven at the speeds where the fault showed. Each control unit is then scanned again for any returning code.

To book, send the model and the distance shown on the odometer by WhatsApp.

Why Royal Prince

Why choose Royal Prince Auto Care for Hyundai service in Dubai

These methods shape each Hyundai job in our workshop.

Coolant mixed with deionised water

Hyundai calls for deionised or soft water in the coolant of the Elantra coded CN7. We mix coolant with deionised water, never tap water.

Refrigerant read from the label

Hyundai lists 2 refrigerants for the Sonata coded DN8: 600 g of R-134a or 520 g of R-1234yf. We read the car's label and charge the type and weight it names.

No mineral oil

On an Elantra coded CN7, Hyundai treats mineral or semi-synthetic oil as a severe maintenance condition for the oil change. We fill the grade Hyundai lists for the engine, so the oil alone never puts the car on the severe schedule.

IONIQ 5 charge kept above 10 per cent

Hyundai asks IONIQ 5 (NE) owners to keep the high-voltage battery gauge above 10 per cent. It also warns that storing the car too hot or too cold degrades the battery. We hold the charge above that level while the car is with us.

Every Santa Fe generation

The Santa Fe has run through 5 generations since 2000, from the original model to the current fifth generation. Our workshop takes each of them, the Santa Fe coded CM and TM included.

Recalls checked, dealer work referred

Each Hyundai we take in is checked for open recalls, the GCC ones included. Recall work, ADAS calibration and Hyundai software updates go to a Hyundai dealer.

  • “I have been a customer of Royal Prince Auto Care since 2021 when I owned a Nissan X-Trail, and from day one I have consistently received outstanding service. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality have always impressed me. For the past two years, I have owned a Toyota RAV4, and despite purchasing it brand new, I have chosen to service it exclusively at Royal Prince Auto Care rather than at the dealership. The confidence I placed in their team has been fully justified. They have maintained my vehicle to such a high standard that it feels every bit as well cared for as an agency-maintained car. A special thanks to Mr. Bharath for his exceptional support and dedication in keeping my vehicle in top-notch condition. His expertise, honesty, and customer-focused approach make every visit a great experience. I highly recommend Royal Prince Auto Care to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and high-quality vehicle maintenance services. In fact, many of my colleagues and friends have also become customers after hearing about my positive experiences.”

  • “I have used Royal Prince Auto Care a couple of times, and even during my very first visit, I was genuinely impressed by the team. The reception staff, especially Nikhil, Nikhil Mehta, and Bharath, made the entire experience smooth and welcoming. Their professionalism, friendly approach, and willingness to assist customers truly stand out. One thing I really appreciate about Royal Prince Auto Care is their transparency. Unlike many workshops that don’t allow customers into the work area, they are completely open and let you see the work being carried out on your vehicle, which builds a great deal of trust and confidence. The technicians are also very skilled and approachable. A special mention to Sukhwinder, the Punjabi technician who handled my wheel alignment with great precision and professionalism. Overall, Royal Prince Auto Care offers reliable service, honest communication, and a customer-friendly environment. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and transparent garage for their vehicle maintenance and repairs.”

FAQs

Hyundai questions, answered

Does dust count as severe use for a Hyundai service in Dubai?

Yes. For the Tucson NX4, Hyundai lists heavy dust, dusty or unpaved roads and heavy traffic among its severe conditions. On an Elantra coded CN7, Hyundai's Middle East schedule then sets the oil and filter change at every 5,000 km or 6 months. Cars driven that way get the severe schedule from us.

Does the Santa Fe turbo take a shorter service interval?

Yes. On a Santa Fe coded MX5, Hyundai's Middle East schedule sets the oil change at 15,000 km or 12 months for the G2.5 GDI. The G2.5 T-GDI gets 10,000 km or 12 months, and 5,000 km in every market under severe use. We service each engine to its own interval.

Why does Idle Stop and Go stop working after a Hyundai battery change?

On a Tucson coded NX4e, Hyundai states that Idle Stop and Go does not work straight after the AGM battery is reconnected or replaced. The battery sensor first calibrates: after 4 hours with the engine off, the engine is started and stopped 3 to 4 times. We fit an AGM battery as the replacement.

Do you service Hyundai diesels?

Yes. We service the 2.2 litre diesels of the Staria and the Palisade coded LX2. On the LX2, Hyundai lists ACEA C3 or C2 oil for the 2.2 diesel with a particulate filter. That is the grade we fill.
