    Jack snapped - warranty?

    Jacking up the front end of the car to check a tyre as it was slowly going down and got the jack up no problem then the handle snapped off! [:@] Managed to jack it back down though. Looks like the handle parts are weak metal. So, will it be covered under warranty?

    Hi, my car (06 MY Leon) was delivered without a spare wheel, I have sourced a space saver wheel off a Golf V but have been quoted £40+ for a jack from the Seat dealer. So, it's back to ebay or the scrapyard, can anyone confirm if a jack from any other VAG car will do for the New Leon please?
