extended warranty
Discussion
I use Warranty Direct. Would recommend them anytime. No fuss on payouts and they cover wear and tear too - a general clause where warranty companies tend not to pay out.
I had an Audi Q7 that just kept on going wrong over a period of 12 months had issues with the engine, suspension, sunroof and multimedia system - WD paid out over £7k during the year !!!
WD are much cheaper than AM and a much more comprehensive cover at that.

Has the warranty direct got the break down cover and european cover?
yeah, would appear so from their homepage blurb.from a garage perspective dealing with them to lodge a claim for a worn out clutch was painless, my experience of other warranty policies has been entirely painful.

The clutch plate is not mentioned in the policy, so not covered.
How did they pay out for the clutch you mentioned, please?

for those who drive with mechanical sympathy a friction plate burnout is uncommon. What is most common is pressure plate related failure which i termed as breakage. I compiled the claim form, they approved and paid up faster than any other ins company i have the hassle to deal with.The clutch plate is not mentioned in the policy, so not covered.

with any other company the clutch is a complete no go wear item no matter the failure.

Get to the payment stage and shut down and wait for them to call you in 24 hours. They will offer you a much better deal than that on the website

I said dream on, he provided me policy, i contacted them, told them problem, they paid up. What more can i say?
