my car ran out of warranty in july(vrs octy), skoda very kindly refunded me on four coilpacks last month,i now have a cold start problem and a sticking starter motor,which have become apparent since july.

would they be likely to fix my problems being as the car is only just out of warranty,or am i dreaming?how far does skoda's good will go? the coilpacks have been an issue over the whole VAG range, i also understand that there have been a few issues with the coolant temp sensor. the car is in for 40k service soon,should i brace myself for a much larger bill?or is skoda gonna be on my christmas card list for years to come?

In my experience the warranty is pretty fixed in being 3 years/60k miles. My air con sensor packed up at 3 1/2 years and they would not fix it, however I did manage to get them to cover the labour for replacing a track rod arm, but that was a dealer decision rather than a Skoda decision.

It doesn't hurt to ask and the worst that can happen is they can say no

Coolant temp sensor costs about

got the answer from the garage today,no chance!!always worth a try,only mentioned the starter as i had read up on the temp sensor,think i can manage that on me own
