Does warranty cover this?

[SeanyK]

Hiya,

As im taking my car in for the alarm to be checked, I thought i'd ask them about a couple of niggly things which I wondered would be covered under the warranty...

1) Rear screen wash pipe coming off (sure that will be covered).

2) Glove box needs quite a bit of force to shut or latch doesnt engage.

3) Petrol gauge does NOT go to the maximum on the gauge when full it is a little behind the full line, most cars go PAST the full line... Picky, but it irritates me...

Are they covered do you think?

 

[m0rk]

1 & 2 will be.

 

[Ninja]

i agree 1 and 2 definately

Good luck with number 3 though

i used to have this happen a lot finally figured it out to be trying to use it when there is no water, have no stopped this and not happened since (about 1 year) hope this helps and if it was widely known then i offer to sack myself!

Surely 3 would be classed as a faulty gauge? It's not displaying correctly?

 

[kriso]

If it's not displaying correctly then should be covered. They could replace dashboard display bit or fuel level sender. I don't see how they could call it driver wear etc

 

[AwesomeSarah]

Elecrical or manuifacturing faults are covered
So if it is the level sensor or the dash pod it should be covered
All of the above should be covered
See how you get on
Wear and tear is something that is NOT covered

Tried venting the tank? That would take you past the line.

Agreed, mine was not going to the line, i bleed it wen i fill up, takes a while but worth it!

 

[SeanyK]

I guess they will prob try that at the garage then when I take it in? I'll make sure the old petroleum is a bit low lol.

Thanks for all the helpful replies folks, muchly appreciated

 

[goble]

yes of course all 3 of them are.
no 3 takes about 10 minutes to fix as it gets adjust via diagnostic machine

it already does vent.

 

[diss_50]

How to you bleed the tank before a fill up?? Is it the little thing in the fuel nossle with the hole in it to the right?? I push it anyway! lol

 

[goble]

??????? Hey Explain?

 

[CHR15B]

When you remove the filler cap on the left hand side in the fillerpipe you can see a little plastic cylinder sort of sticking out... if you poke that forward with the nozzle when your tank is filled it will release some air and let you get more in

Or maybe it is the right hand side? I can't remember and I do it once a week lol!

 

[goble]

yup
