I’ll be brief.
Car is out of warranty by 6 months (MX 100D 1 month before Raven model), I had the half shafts and front control arms replaced in the last year (whilst under warranty) to fix a horrible squeak at full-lock turns, the shudder and “death” rattle on hard acceleration. The problem has come back and the SC have said they need to replace the whole front drive assembly as there was a newly issued part that wasn’t replaced at the time of the repair that has worn and the issue will just come back.
They have offered to do this only charging for some part of the assembly ~£350. Should I kick up a fuss saying that it should have been replaced in the first instance or just accept it. Not sure how much the whole replacement would cost me if they wouldn’t honour a 12 month warranty on the original repair.
