Timeless warranty - what does it cover?
Discussion
I was very surprised to get a new taillight on the Timeless warranty, it had a bit of condensation in it but was still working perfectly.
Are there any other items that they’ve unexpectedly covered?
I’m sure I read somewhere recently that they replaced someone’s corroded mirror arms; mine are quite bad so I’ll have to ask them when I’m in for a service soon.
Thought it would be a good idea to start a thread where we can record what items were / weren’t covered.
Cheers.

Door struts
Folding wing mirror motors
Drivers heated seat element
However, I had to fight way to hard to have an oil pressure relief valve replaced which required a fair amount of labour - having been told by the supplying dealer when questioned about a whine on start.
Dealer "They all do that"
Me "Oh, you'd have the car on your forecourt making that noise would you"
Dealer "Yes, thats normal"
Not a chance... wouldn't have sold the car if it made such a noise.
Overall, the hassle I went through & the premium I paid - I wasn't happy with said dealer.

I had;
New clutch (paid £400 for AMR unit to be fitted - dealer's suggestion)
Gearbox oil changed on the way to the clutch
Central locking boxes
Paint bubble on the roof, did whole roof and side of the car, amazing job)
Very slightly worn front bushes, arms replaced
Rusty bolts on the top of the engine!
Well worth the warranty on my 09 V8V for me and dealers were both great (Cheltenham and Welwyn).
Having said that I didn't renew it on the basis that this lot's been done...
