Warranty on a Skoda
Purchased car in October 2011 in eary Feb with about 1800 miles on the clock noticed a slight judder - thought it was a poor road surface, after it happpened several times had tyres/tracking checked all OK (liitle air needed in tyres). Problem continued intermittently at first and then became more frequent and intense after a 10 day delay the skoda garage had the car in for a check and discovered the discs are warped and need replacing and are going to charge me for it. There is now about 2500 miles on the clock. I am happy to contribute to the cost of the pads but don't see why I should pick up the full cost as I believe warranty should cover the defect. Am I being being unreasonable?

More likely to be corrosion damage to the discs.

Decently built and good value. Cheap to run. Greenline models are very economical with low CO2 emissions.
