2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black
LR extended warranty just paid out

£542 for a new starter motor (inc VAT and fitting)
£270 for a new intermediate shaft on the steering column (inc VAT and fitting) - I didn't even know this was worn but Lookers detected a clonk on their test drive!

Waiting for more info on potentially vanishing coolant before we'll see if they pay for that too (coolant drops over time, nothing too dramatic.. pressure test came back okay - could it be something serious.. time will tell)

LR extended warranty - £760 a year on a TDV8 57 plate.

Cool Cool Cool

United Kingdom 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HST Java Black

I've never understood why some dealers try and weazzle out of warranty claims, it's not as if they pay directly!

I took my HST in a few weeks ago, had new door handles, wishbones, bushes, parking sensors and exhausts all done for free Smile

I was quite suprised about the exhaust, but as it is stainless it shouldn't have surface rust so off they came! I'm quite friendly with the service manager as he has just come over from BMW where I have been for many years, but I've always had good dealings with most dealers Smile

sometimes because the labour the warranty company will pay for is not enough to cover the job, or is at a reduced £ rate
