    I currently have a car in for a fault 

    Would insurance pay for a courtesy car for a car in the garage because of a fault- not after an accident?
    Well spotted!
    Absolutely, insurance will not usually (ever?) cover a "fault" or a routine repair.  Perhaps the OP could clarify?

    If the question is whether or not the insurance will cover a courtesy car whilst yours in for for a non accident repair, Aviva will.

    The insured vehicle The vehicle registration mark described above or 

    1. any vehicle loaned to the principal policyholder for a maximum of seven days from a garage, motor engineer or vehicle repairer while the vehicle registration described above is being either serviced, repaired or having an MOT test. 

    2. any vehicle loaned to the principal policyholder or, any other person entitled to drive as described in permitted drivers, by the insurer’s nominated supplier as a result of a claim under this policy: i) whilst the vehicle registration described above is being repaired ii) whilst the vehicle registration described above is being replaced iii) following theft of the vehicle registration described above
