Free TOYOTA AVENSIS engine > 100% Genuine!
Options
Dear Martin,
Just to let you know that TOYOTA UK are giving all Avensis owners a brand NEW free engine and a free courtesy car while your cars engine is being replaced!
This is due to TOYOTA themselves acknowledging that there is a fault in ALL Avensis models of a small but still significant oil leak.
You must have a FULL Toyota Service History with your car and one more thing> you must go to any official Toyota dealer and complain of a suspected oil leak or burn that you have noticed. Trust me, I have a 2004 Avensis with full Toyota history and when I went for my service 3 weeks ago because I just mentioned that I had noticed a small but steady loss of oil I was told immediately that Toyota would give me a brand new, NOT reconditioned engine!
They duly and promptly had my new engine in in two days and a courtesy Toyota Aygo to use while I was waiting! This is truly excellent customer service which will save a lot of us Avensis owners a lot of cash!
Hope this helps
Kind Regards

Hi YAZ1559, welcome to MSE
I've moved your thread to the Motoring Board
Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].0 -
Pretty standard procedure for a dealer, if the issue is sufficient. We used to do Passat gearboxes every other week (popluar with cabbies!), but warrenty only allow new replacement units and a courtesy car is standard too
Thanks for the update :rolleyes::A Luke 6:38 :AThe above post is either from personal experience or is my opinion based on the person God has made me and the way I understand things. Please don't be offended if that opinion differs from yours, but feel free to click the 'Thanks' button if it's at all helpful!0 -
& from the (now, 'cos it ain't GM no more) worlds largest car maker, it's the least they can do!!
