Just another to add to the list of warranty repairs on my MY01 PPP - gearbox failure!
So the list of warranty replacements to date includes...
New Wheel bearings all round
New Clutch
New factory Alarm / Immob
Adjusted Geometry for eneven tyre wear on fronts.
New Gearbox???
When they came to pick the car up to take it for repair I timed how long Trackstar would take to notice the car was moving without the Trackstar disarmed - had a phone call in 6 minutes!!!! Tell me Trackstar aint worth the money!
I received a rental car the following morning - expected a TDi Golf or Mondeo - Got an Astra GSi Turbo with 3k on the clock. Great fun to drive and interesting to compare against the Scoob. Goes like a roller skate down a half pipe!
