Servicing and Warranty
6 Answers
Does anyone what the 'rules' are in terms of having your car serviced by a garage other than the authorised main dealer, in this case Ford. I have heard that you can have it done by another garage without this affecting the manufacturers warranty. If so how do you find out about the garages?

However you must be careful because Audi offer a 3 year warrany but the third year is given by the dealer and not the manufacturer. So, if you dont have the car seviced by them, they are not obliged to give you the third year cover. Clever huh? I suspect its only Audi who do this, but please check before you buy, just who provides the warranty.
