Was just wondering if anybody could help me...

i bought my car back in december, it was at 92,000kms, now the car is at 103,000kms... so the service is due, i was just wondering if a warranty would cover this?

I cant find the paperwork for the warranty i got, but if its a used car @ $25000, surely there is some sought of cover eh?

Cheers

Guy

If it was in the 90,000's at the car yard, usually ones I've seen they have already had the service done to make it more appealing to sell. If it wasn't done on yours that could have been a point to bring up at the time of making on offer on it, because as mentioned maintenance isn't covered by warranty. Check to make sure it definately wasn't done but that could be your last hope...

And to follow on, unless you got an extended warranty, then you only have limited items that you can claim on and warranty usually runs out between 1-3 months IIRC... but thats from a car dealer.

Import brokers & compliancers are a different kettle of fish, but once again, can offer extended warranties, which very few ppl take anyway.

Nothing says that someone (being a personal sale or car yard) has to do any servicing on the car.

Its due for the 100,000km service which will have to come out of your pocket. To do everything properly, you would probably be looking around $1000.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
