If that was bought recently, then yes, under the new consumer legislation, but he's going to have to take civil action and hope the company involved is still trading come payout time. Go tell him to talk to CAB, about the car being fit for purpose.

He may only be able to claim against the turbo tho, unless he bought the car with the add ons and they were taken off after he bought it. The gearbox will go down to servicing or whatever, cos they won't sell it with a broken one will they
