warranty on gearknob

[Daz8161]

hey guys the silver trim on the gearknobs come off and was wondering if id get a new one under warranty? Or is this under wear and tear? My cars a year and a half old.

 

[cordobabrendy]

you would be doing well to get it replaced fella, maybe a good time to go for a nicer one?

 

[Daz8161]

awk crap, i dont think any other ones fit my car because its a 1.6 is has a wider gearknob bit supposedly. how much are the standard ones?

Got mine replaced in the last year of warranty. Asked for a 225 one and got it, think they were sweetening me up cos a week later told me they couldn't replace my alloy/s under warranty.

 

[Daz8161]

bummer!!! what have you done about ur alloys?

Peeling paint on knob do search loads on here bout LCR ones they were supposed to have sorted prob when 225 replaced 210 but all they did was use black plasit under paint instead of white so it didnt show as much, wedding rings are usually blamed!

dealers changed mine after I had suffered 2 strokes and a small heart attack at the reception desk in front of queing customers, oh and I think I wet myself too!!!, but in the end it was worth it cos I am the proud owner of a new knob!!!!---next time ill just go to halfrauds and buy a new one, change it myself and save on the doctors/time off work bills!!

Lol Eddie!

My LCR 02 knob paint chipped badly! I scraped all the black paint off and underneath is white so it matches the white rev/speed dials!

If you didn’t know it was meant to be black you would not notice it or think it looks crap.

I used to have a full head of normal hair 5 years ago--now im receeding AND going grey---could be my genes, but id like to put a bet on that its something to do with the lowest level of customer care ive ever recieved from any car dealer, period!!!

Some dealers seem fine with this and I had mine replaced along with the badges under warrenty - good time to change it too as I got my dealer to replace mine to save me the hassle - still have the old one at home somewhere.

 

[Carr20vt]

They wouldn't let me change my own centre caps, badges, indicator lenses or knob! Asked them to send the centre caps save time and money petrol wise said they had to return old ones to SEAT UK.
Paint peeling off wheels really bad now they don't want to know so getting them refurbed myself. Oh and badges have gone bad again after three months

 

[Daz8161]

my dealer is replacing the knob for a new one

 

[Carr20vt]
