Hello, I'm new to this forum. I have a '65' plate Evoque for which I have bought extended warranty. I'm in the last few months of PCP finance.
Not for the first time, the dashboard computer is incorrectly telling me the car is due for a service (it currently says in 1800 miles). In fact the car isn't due another service for 8 months or after another 20,000 miles.
My local dealership says they'll take a look and reset it (they did this less than 6 months ago). However they warn that they may decide the fault is not covered by warranty, and they'd charge an hourly diagnostic fee (expensive) whether or not I go ahead with a repair that is not covered by warranty.
It may be that the fault can be fixed under warranty, but I'm reluctant to take the car to them with effectively a blank cheque. So my question is: Has anyone else had the 'service due' notification fault, and would I be safe simply to ignore it (what would happen after I covered the 1800 miles)?
Many thanks for any advice.
