    Vehicle : 9-3 Wagon

    Trim : Turbo Edition

    Engine : TID (1.9 16v)

    Year : 2010

    Mileage : 137000

    Default More ammunition!!!!

    Well as you know Ive been having loads of probs with the engine in my vec culminating in a brand spanking new one.

    I'm currently gathering date times and costs to throw at VX in search of an extended warranty as it runs out in February and with it the new engine.

    Well there I am driving to the dealer today as the new engine number they have given me is not the clearest, about 300m up the road from them the dash goes bananas, loss of power steering, ABS, all clocks died and lights are flashing everywhere! Warning lights on dash were:- first a gear with a spanner in it and then:- a steering wheel with an ! in it.

    Well hauled the car into the dealer parked right in front of the front door, and I mean right in front at a stupid " look at my fu@Ked car everyone! sort of angle! Turned it of and then on again to see if it reset anything but this time nothing, the car is well and truly stuck there. MMMM

    Walked strait into dealer and royally kicked off this time, no more Mr nice guy! Not a happy bunny! When this thing is sorted I think i'm going to get rid.
    To make things worse gave it a 6hr detail on Sunday and now its going to be covered in oily fingers and more scratches.

    Anyway on the other hand this is all ammunition for my case for the extended warranty.

    Use to be when I bought it, drove it around a bit to find that the air con didn't work, took it back and the refused to sort it and said I had to pay for it! That was there chance so have been at Dixons in Horsforth ever since.

    My mate ending up jumping over the desk there a couple of weeks ago when they messed with his Signum. Little geezer in his early 50's **** himself and then stamped V.I.P on the job card to make sure it was done correctly. So far so good. Vardy's are absolutley horrendous but they have the monoply in most of Leeds so your stuck.

    Nidd Vale at Wetherby are slightly better, but it's a bit of a trek.
