Follow up on my previous thread, after proving that I was overseas was the reason that my car had not been serviced for 8 months instead of the required 6 months even though the car had only travelled 4,000 klms.
The warranty insurance company sent out an assessor to look at the turbo and confirm the it was stuffed. The approval was given to replace it, $4045 with labour. All this took nearly 2 and 1/2 weeks.
Finally got the car back yesterday and am heading for
Darwin via
Canberra to-day.
The difference towing the caravan is amazing probably been playing up for some time.
Moral of the story is to make sure when under warranty is make sure the car is serviced to the makers requirements.
