He should be pleased to see you regardless as he gets paid for warranty work aswell

Mines in at the dealers tomorrow, new AR bar bushes and a new antiroll bar, and tailgate catch, the list is starting to get longer, it will never be as long as VA's some of my Previous cars

Yeah, but its EVERY week Envoy??? I must be Mr Angry or the customer from hell?

Also, I think warranty work is charged to LR at reduced rate?

At least you are regular

We do a fair bit of warranty work even though it is a reduced rate, the hours that allow are quite good some of my Previous cars

[quote="XXXAngelXXX] your constantly OFF ROAD !?[/quote]

yep sure am, but not they way I'd like to be!!

Honestly, how are Land Rover making any money on these cars?? If we represent a slice of owners and we have all had quite a number of bits replaced (VA, some more than others ) surely that must be hurting LR/Ford....I wonder if this is why BMW ditched it. I'm yet to isolate one person on this site that has not had a problem, more likely several.....I am amazed, but maybe that is why you pay $90,000 instead of $45,000 for a Nissan Patrol....half for the car and half for warranty RRS TDV6 Bluetooth, VR, Roof

Most definitely... 1 year and 27000 miles! Went through tyres likes wildfire - I think all were replaced twice - but in terms of reliability and mechanical issues, not a single problem.
