Is this covered under warrenty

Hi guys, not sure if a ball joint is playing up.
Steering doesn't feel very secure (might be my mind tho!!) and going over speed bumps makes a thud sound.
Cars in for service tomorrow for a 2nd service which they class as a major service so wondered if they check joints and if found to be knackered will replace.

maybe in the first few months but after 2 years not likely
mention the problem when it goes in and see what they say
but i will take a guess and they will say its fine

Ye they prob say its wear and tear. Shouldn't be too expensive if they are shot anyway.

On a different note, vx offered a clean out of all old oil and clean the fuel lines inc injectors for £18. They just going to use redex for the fuel ?

they do an engine flush before the oil change if you pay extra about £50 but injector cleaning will be something they throw in the fuel for that price

She said its to clean all old oil deposits throughout and cleans fuel lines and the injectors for £18. I'll double check with the guy who picking up the car tomorrow.

I would rather use pro-tec funny enough I spoke with my mechanic about flushing the engine when doing an oil change and he said the only time he would recommend it is if there was a problem or after xx amount of years.

Most likely there way of screwing an extra £18 out of you.

And the chap who comes to pick the car up wont have a clue as he's just a driver
