• Kia Ceed - Kia Ceed and extended warranty 29 Aug 2014 (Forum)
  HI, I am new to the forum. I purchased a used Kia Ceed  in 2010 and at the time I was told it was part of the approved used programme where the car would be given a 7 year warranty. Great - so i thought. To cut a long story short, the car was one month out of the maximum 18 month age limit cars can be to quality for the programme, but the dealer agreed to honour the additional 19 months.

• Suzuki Swift (2005 - ) - Warranty Woes 16 Dec 2008 (Forum)
  I have a 2007 Suzuki Swift that has done about 6000 miles and has developed an occasional clutch judder. It happens when the vehicle has not been used for some hours, or overnight, but the fault disappears quickly. My suspicion is that the rear engine oil seal is letting-by, and the use of the clutch burns off the small amount of oil. The car has a 3 year warranty.

• Paintwork warranties 17 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  This is disappointing - my 10 year old Astra with 131k is virtually rust-free. In the 1970/80s Japanese cars used to succumb to the demon rust very quickly but I thought they would have sorted that out by now.
