A vehicle that age with that many km has to have a warranty, take it back to them and see what they say. If they start the muck around then start making suggestions. Give them a chance first.

Good luck with it.

cheers. I think I'll need the good luck. I guess I'm already lucky on 2 counts...1) it was not bought privately, 2) the fault appeared it warranty period.

No lights or warnings at the moment. The "Trans Limited Function" warning went away after car restart. I'm sure my regular ind. mechanic will scan and check if I ask, but I need to be prepared for a laugh cos he told me to buy a Subaru!.

As a used car bought from a dealer it will have the 3month/5000km statutory warranty. I'm just not sure how to make sure I don't get stuffed around by the dealer with an intermittent fault.
