  3. Seat Extended Warranty

    My Altea is out of its warranty in September, and have looked into getting extended cover. Emailed Seat UK and they have said that they do extended cover through the main dealers. Anyone got any experience of these, cost, cover etc. Altea Sport TDI's have a lot of gadgets to go wrong, I have...

    Just about to whack on some DS2500's but just wanted to ask/check whether not using Brembo pads, in the event of some issue arising with brake, will invalidate parts of the warranty?
