Thanks for the link, I'm going to do this myself.

I didn't expect the brakes to be covered by warranty, because they are consumables, but the suspension arms, the roof cable that failed a few months back and a fault with the cluctch that was reported on delivery of the car have all been excluded from the warranty. I've also been told that suspension parts, and heat shields are not covered either.

My aftermarket warranty said they do not cover rear suppesnion but covers the front, hmmmm wounder what exactly the cover.

I use Mentex pads also for the low dust. The Mentex are better than the Brembo pads anyway for about the same cost.

Would it be easier to list what IS covered? What was the problem with the clutch? I wouldn't expect the clutch disc to be covered, but anything else ought to be IMHO. Same with A-Arms since the bushings can't be replaced separately (yet).

Look around on the net and see if you can find some aftermarket A-Arm bushings. There are a bunch available for the 928 in different materials. It's the same way with that car and the dealer, have to replace the whole thing, so some smart folks came up with their own bushings to replace the old ones. :dance:
