I am looking at a 2 1/2 year old Disco 3 which has 6 months of the original warrenty left. Does anyone know if it's possible to extend this to five years and if so, how - all google seems to give is details of the wrrenty from new...
 
unless it is a manufacturers warranty extension-do not bother keep the money you would have spent, they will not pay out
 
Wouldnt waste me money on that, cos some warrenty companies will do anything to get out of paying to put the issue right... happened with the Range Rover I had, wouldnt pay out for the transfer box replacement..
 
they will **** you warped discs=wear and tear,head gasket not covered and will only offer % due to wear and tear=worked in a garage and warranty company =****witts

You were able to extend Land Rover's warrenty on a new vehicle up to five years and it's transferable if required but that was when a warrenty for a new vehicle was one year, for what it covers speak to the Land Rover dealer.
You must remember for the warrenty to be valid you must have your disco serviced at a Land Rover dealer.
I have had a LR warrenty twice and had only had a pinion oil seal replaced under it, thats £6000+ oil seal. :)
 
Hi
Have a look on www.disco3.co.uk as they have covered extended warrenty a few times and most think it is worth while if you get the right one.
I am currently looking into this for my 2 1/2 year old Disco 3.

Cheers

For me now it's a ballance in costs, yes an £800 warrenty will cover a £2000+ replacement gearbox should it fail or a new radiator but then you would be unlucky with newish vehicle, theres a lot of normal small jobs that can be carried out for the £800, or what ever the cost is now, and you will pay that each year.

I dont think I would extend the warrenty over the manufactures one again, what ever make but then most now give a 3 or 4 year as standard, not the one year as it use to be for new or s/h vehicles.
 
Thanks for your comments - I am weary of insurance based warrenties (and rightly so given your comments) but I had heard it was possible to extend the original Land Rover warrenty. Think I may be better of keeping the money and dealing with things as, when and if they arise. Thanks for all your comments.
