Driving home the other day I lost all gears, now the car is with CN’s having it looked at (thanks for being so fast guys!) I don’t know yet whether it’s a gearbox problem or a clutch problem, question is, with less than 20K miles on the clock and only one trackday (well a morning’s drifting at Oulton to be precise), whatever the problem is should this be a warranty issue?
I will pay whatever the cost is so I can get to Le Mans OK, but should I chase this up with Lotus afterwards to get a refund?
It’s under 2 years and under 20K miles… But what if the dealer can’t spot any specific failure, and just puts it down to wear and tear? I still think it should last longer…
Your within the warranty & that’ll cover a gearbox failure, unless say it can be demonstrated you have been changing gear without the clutch Dont worry. Doesn’t sound like a quick fix though (more like a rebuild rather than a replacement push for the former & tell 'em your booked with the car for Le Mans).
