ref brake disc this has come up before so in my mind its a volvo faults and they should pay not you
next your engine off coarse volvo should pay for engine 45 k miles and engine is cracked ,this is know problem esp on new style engines so thats why there paying up. clutches they also have major problem with them cover plates collapsing ask ROOSTER ,they are using cheap parts thats why they are collapsing also cheap terminals thats why they loose can high signal good luck.. |

Thanks for the info - I've left the discs with the Dealership to have a look at and speak to VolvoUk about - he said he didn't think it would fit the warranty as it's brake related but I would argue that. Citizens Advice have recommended I send them to Trading Standards as they raise concerns about safety - I'll report on what happens.

Another interesting point to make is that VolvoUK said that because I am not 'contributing' to the cost I will have zero warranty on the new engine. Sounds wrong to me but maybe there would still be an element of 'goodwill' if something did go wrong.

That is normal industry practice , for example if you had the problem with a week to run on the warranty , the repair would be covered by the remaining warranty in that case only the remaining week ... I would imagine you would have the usual 12 month labour warranty from the garage which did the work but it would not cover parts .
