You just don't seem to get those sorts of dramas with the stuff from Japan, maybe that's why the Toyota Pious sorry Prius owners are screaming   |
A mate in Sydney has/had a Range Rover Sport, reasonably late one and <50K on it, still under warranty. It broke down the other month and he towed it to the dealer who reported a brass bush in the fuel pump had flogged out. The quote to fix ... $24,000! Thats no typo, 24K. According to RR if this happens it needs a total rebuild of the engine as the brass goes through everything and traces are even injected into the engine clogging rings etc.
On asking for why it was not under warranty got back reply "because you must have put petrol in it instead". In the end he had the fuel tested and nope, all diesel to his delight so they did it under warranty.
If I owned one I'd be selling it pre-warranty expiration. He did the next week.
