£500 doesn't sound like much of a claim to be honest. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

£146 for £2500 in labour/parts sounds ok, £500 a go should cover enough labour to get stuff done. If you took some fog and put it in a jar, would it be missed. |

Nice one Kensta most of the feedback I have read on them is positive not many negative at all. Would be nice if the offered an increased level of cover tho as I would probably go for it just for peace of mind to cover Gearbox....etc 2009 3.6 TDV8 HST |

No probs mikey, Its worth doing if even just for the minor stuff but even 500quid will go a longer way if u pik the right garage to go too, I looked into warranty direct also but noticed lots of bad reports on the net so stayed clear Java black 2006 |

If you take out the AA warranty, bare in mind you have to break down to be able to claim, you also have to pay £35 excess on every claim and they will only pay a maximum of £85 per hour labour rate including vat, so that rules out most main dealers |

i have breakdown repair warrantry which i think is what you asking about.can claim upto £500 five times a year with £35 excess.when i bought my rrs last year i rang the aa to join and they talked me into having this which im glad i did as 4 weeks later my car started playing up a bit when cold.paid £95 to landrover for them to tell me a egr valve had gone down.rang aa and told them but they said i have to call them out first,so i did they came and told me the same and also if i had rang them first would of saved me my £95..!! had it replaced at £400 at notts landrover which i paid then they sent me back a cheque of £365 in 5 days.! but they wanted me to get both sides done but landrover notts talked them out of it saying it was ok,which would of ment a bill of £800 and i would only get back £465.!! then a month later other egr went down,rang aa which they confirmed and went in again and they paid up again.at this point i had only paid them £16.!! notts landrover changed prices around so they got the work as they normally charge £120 per hour which aa only go upto £85. yes if your engine or gearbox goes then this is not much help,but this dont happen a lot and you can go to smaller dealers as long as there v a t registered to have work done so it will cover most things. i would well recommend it.i pay £16 a month which includeds it and home start and recovery.WELL worth the money |

Mine's booked in for some work under warranty in a week's time. That would cost £1800 in total if not covered by the warranty.
