Well,

The saga started back in august when i drove the ute up to bundaberg for a trip anyway i found out quickly what was gone on the ute.
Got back to Sydney and took it to the dealership and told them what i believed was stuffed anyway A new steering rack,front discs etc and mind you the thing was the best that they had on the Lot and travelled 80000kms when i got it now two months later 93000kms and no frigging warranty.

The list now includes new Exhaust,diff gasket,Map sensor......what will be next my options are to trade it on a newy with shitloads of warranty or get a second hand from a Holden dealership"175000kms or 3 years" mot like Fords crappy effort of 3months or 5000kms.........

feel free with you opinions......

Mr_GT

which dealer did you buy it from ?
sometimes if the car has problems and the warranty runs out just before it happens, you might be able to get the work re-imbursed.

Mr_GT

They are dodgy up that way, well in their used cars anyway.
They had a EL Fairmont and my cousin was looking for a car, we went up and checked it out, was 14 grand and they touched up scratches dodgy,coolant tank was brown as sh*t,oil was black, started it up and blew out blue smoke and the guy was trying to tell us it is perfect and just got serviced.
Most of the cars they had there were overpriced and abused.
Hope it all goes well for ya.
