| 10FC servicing when still in warranty? |
|
My service is due Oct, LR warranty runs to mid Mar 2011. Can you use an independent during the warranty period?
Cheers  Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:
"What is the first rule when overlanding?"

Yes as long as schedule is kept to and genuine parts used.
Think there may have used to be a thing that the 'garage' should be vat registered but may be wrong

Excellent, thanks for the replies
Must save up then for some other tinkering at the same time (its part of the service update dear   ) It will be getting chilly then (something that needs a remote ) Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:

You Need to Email him NOW, in the mail tell him the type of service and roughly when you are due, and of course any extra's you might want...This gives him ample time to locate/arrange work in the area thus saving runaround mileage and time lost..

You can't do better than TFC in or out of warranty

DiscoStu, that is probably not the best way to advertise his services 
I know what you meant though.
The thing about TFC is he will tell you everything about the car, rather than just what's on the check sheet from LR.
