Coil Packs, Warranty?

[SEAT]

Hey coil packs, just gone on my car. Had it replaced, but now I'm reading around here about a 5 year warranty.

Is this part covered by a 5 year warranty even though the standard 3 year warranty has expired - I'm slightly confused.
Please tell me I haven't just had my local independent fix it for £95 when its under warranty!

Thanks for the help guys.

coil packs on vw range cars extended to 5 year waranty instead of 3 because of all the problems with coil packs. so you could of saved £95

Well bugger, I could have spent £100 in a better way but atleast I know for next time. Even worse was it was the day I passed my test, had gone less than 5 miles before it went pop!

Can you not try and send in a warrenty claim and try and get the money back off seat? might work but then again everyone knows what seat are like with trying to get stuff done on warrenty

Not a bad idea, they have to cover this now as long as genuine parts have been used, don't they?

Ah-ha, we'll see - any idea how to contact Seat or just go to the dealer?

Go to the dealer and if they say no, then say right ill go to seat uk then. They should have a contact number in your Car manual thing or if not then try there website as im sure they'll have a contact section.
