Anyone used a proper service center in Abu Dhabi they'd recommend outside the dealer?
I've been taking my 2018 Honda Accord to the dealer for years now, mostly out of habit and because I was worried about voiding the warranty, but now that the car's out of warranty I'm seriously considering other options. The dealer service has always been reliable, but the prices have gotten absolutely ridiculous and I'm tired of feeling like I'm being overcharged for basic maintenance. I've been looking around for a workshop that offers the same level of care and professionalism but at a more reasonable price, something like what you'd expect from a Dedicated Service Center Repair at 800Sayara Abu Dhabi where they use genuine parts and have certified technicians but without the dealer overheads. A friend mentioned that a good independent workshop should tick all the boxes like certified staff, modern diagnostic equipment, and transparent pricing, which is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm really keen to find a place that I can trust for the long term, especially because I plan on keeping this car for a few more years. Has anyone here made the switch from dealer to independent in Abu Dhabi and actually been happy with the quality of work? I'm based in Khalifa City so anywhere nearby would be ideal, but I'm willing to travel a bit for a workshop that's genuinely reliable. Would appreciate any recommendations.
