Disco 4 crank snap warranty
Discussion
I just dig through the detailed t’s and c’s of the motoreasy cover, there’s a sliding scale of contribution to parts depending on age/ mileage. At the top level of you are over 90k miles (or 9 years) then ME will pay all labour but only 50% of parts.
In the case of the crank/ turbo failure that’s likely to be hefty costs.
Those that have cover, is that correct? Or am
I missing something?

My cover is for ZERO contributions from me but you have to ask for them to change it - it made hardly any difference to the quote In the case of the crank/ turbo failure that’s likely to be hefty costs.

Thanks chaps
Just for fair comparison, are you on Plan A, B or C with them? My offer came through at £74 p/m for plan C, which i think won't cover the turbo's, i'm just on hold now to talk to someone about options.
ETA: All buttoned up. 3 years cover, £1034. Plan B so covers both the Turbo and Crank/ seal failure. They offer as standard 10 installments, if i was prepared to pay in full now (not in installments) they'd remove the contribution piece. The free check is booked for this Friday whereby the 90 day claim barrier is lifted.
All felt very easily (perhaps too easy!?) as with all these things, proof of the pudding is in the eating, but hope i never have to claim!

I have also booked in the "free health check" in order to remove the 90 days no coverage restriction, they've sent me an appointment through, at Halfords Autocentre no less.
Fingers crossed it works out come claim time.

Well that was short-lived. Engine went bang today - started ticking, then rattling, then clattering, then stopped. On its way back to dealer now. Don’t think I want the same garage repairing it as last time.
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Hope the chaps at motoreasy play ball. miniman said:

It’s going nowhere near Motoreasy - just want my money back from the dealer who have already had one go at fixing it - don’t want it now. Will you find another or has this killed the experience for you?

Will speak to Motoreasy tomorrow - if they will put a new engine in it then I might keep it. Just not convinced that it going back to the last place that fixed it is a good plan.
Shirley if the 'repair' was carried out two months ago then its an issue of poor workmanship non ?
I assume the engine was repaired rather than replaced first time round ?
So sorry this has happened - really hope its sorted to your satisfaction
I think if it were me I would just reject the car ..... at the very least a new engine ( still not sure I would keep it )
Does anyone have any figures/numbers of these failures ?

It's back at the original repairer who look to be reputable LR specialist so we shall see. I assume the engine was repaired rather than replaced first time round ?

Did you phone motoreasy in the end? Selfishly I’d really like to know how they respond, especially so close to policy inception (since we joined within a few days of each other), if mine goes bang tmr I don’t have a trader to return it to.

The trader has sent it to said specialist? So they are not yet accepting a rejection? Or you’ve backed out for now?

Trader has taken it to specialist. They have said that if it is diagnosed as crank they will refund me. I did phone Motoreasy - they said to pick up with the dealer initially as it was such a short time since purchase (which is fair) and that I should make sure I give them opportunity to respond. If the dealer declines to resolve it, they will pick up from there. However they did mention “very early in policy”. Did you phone motoreasy in the end?
