    So, an update on the issue.

    I contacted the garage today and they said as the car is in their 3 month warranty they give they will repair it under that.

    I am concerned that if I accept for it to be repaired under warranty, I am then at risk that if they discover the fault is a major issue (like a shaft seal or something) then I have already committed to a repair under warranty and lose the right to a refund under consumer rights? Am I right to be concerned or would I still be within my right to request a refund if the fault is major?
  • Why not just let them try and fix it, and worry about the what ifs if the car comes back with an issue?

    With all due respect you’re starting to sound like a nightmare customer that wouldn’t be happy with the world on a stick.

    Let them try and fix it, and see what happens next without stressing. :)
