I had agreed to the extra fuel injector service over and above the standard minor service charge and had just stated I thought that there might be more frequency and more of a clunk when accelerating away afer foot off. Wow really happy they are so on to it and doing all this no questions asked but sure does make you wonder, how you could expect to run without taking up the extended wty! May have to think more seriously about back to basics defender options as in an earlier post in general chat re changing from D3 to older defender. Still the extended warranty price does not seem too outrageous and at least the dealer seems to really be doing the right thing and did so with the previous Disco as well. I do like to get them dirty and another trip west is on the cards. I will say that the current D3 has been absolutely flawless and I would not have suspected any of the above needed doing.
