I need loads fucking paper lol.

But My car has 17's and is lowered on Apex springs. Also have the centre section cut out, so i can't list too many things really, it may piss them off.

But i shall be listing the following:

- Petrol gauge sticks when i'm below the quarter
- Car wont come out of gear, or go into gear easily, and sometimes crunches when the clutch is all the way down :@
- Steering clonks badly

They are the main ones, i aint gonna bother mentioning the annoying little ratlles, or the fact my passenger windscreen wiper hardly works when i'm going over 70mph. :@

i totally understand what your saying but irmscher are vauxhall approved. this is their get out clause, it does say somewhere that non gen parts could void warranties. m8, u dont wanna no about the new warranty bulletins we have been given today. they truely are shocking

we've had four pages through each page listing 85 changes to warranty items etc. but the stupid bastards haven't said if it is only on new cars and not old ones still under warranty. imagine pickin new car up and drivin 5 miles and brakes squeal like fook. take it vaux and we cannot repair brakes under warranty if customer annoyance. wipers only till 1000miles. anythin electrical gotta ring vaux first. all suspension components-3000 mile. its a fuckin piss take and our warranty clerk has gone ape at vauxhall aftersales
