Bodywork warranty
Whilst looking on the Interweb for the BHP of the 480 turbo, I came across a page from parkers.co.uk that states the 1995/6 480 turbo has a 8 year bodywork warranty. Does anyone know if this is true? I have 2 small rust spots developing inside the driver door on a seam and wondered if I can get it done under warranty? How would I go about finding out what warrantys the car has left? Thanks. Gaz. <p></p><i></i>

Re: Bodywork warranty
Even if it had 8 years warranty it only will be fixed if there's a hole and if the car has been maintained and all service has been done at an authorized Volvo-workshop. <br><br>So I fear it's a dead run in most cases... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Real power and Turbo-shit</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://w1.150.telia.com/~u15008837/signaturbild3.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br><br></p><i></i>

Re: Bodywork warranty
Luckilly the car has been maintained well and has had all it's proper services at the right time at Volvo dealerships, so there's still a chance. I'm going to call the local dealer to find out more. Wish me luck... <p></p><i></i>

Re: Bodywork warranty
It probably doesn't just cover these years, it's just the page I strayed onto was about the 1996/6 models - I guess all 480s have the same bodywork warranties etc - I'm off to the local dealership at lunch today to try and find out what the deal is... <p></p><i></i>
