Thank heavens for the Extended Warranty

[bluenose1940]

My car went in today for service and MOT.  All went well and passed OK.  However, they discovered a very small oil leak at the timing cover.  the car is going back in for the work to be done on December 12th.

I took advantage of the two year warranty option, I'm very glad I did.  The cost is, so they tell me, £1537.24!!! 

The warranty has paid for itself already.

EDIT:  Would it REALLY cost that much to cure a small oil leak?????

Having thought about it, I suppose if they have to strip out a lot of bits to get at it, this could result in added costs.

I took the warranty as seems good value you can't get much done for the cost of the warranty should you have an issue and whilst reliable the repair costs are likely to be high should a problem occur. Never sure if I am over cautious but at least two worry free years of driving and no large bills just as good as a new car!
