Non Franchise Servicing

Is it OK to have first service at non franchise Land Rover specialist garage. They said they follow the same schedule as main dealers and so all OK. Do not want to trash my warranty. Thanks.

Answer is Yes..

but to maintain warranty you will need evidence that genuine parts /oil have been used.
Ie an invoice demonstrating such with part numbers

Clemmo Make today a little better than yesterday but not so good as tomorrow....
Defender 90 HT............Pangea Green
BMW X3 Msport............Carbon Black
Mini Electric................Grey. (wow!)
MGB Roadster……..........Vermillion 17k miles
Honda Benly CD200....Maroon --------McLouis Fusio........7.4m of fun

I have a 3yr old L663, 5dr. The freedom to do what the hell I like is mind blowing .

Bye-Bye JLR

Depends on how confident you are on future goodwill and reliability. BMW paid 95% of the bill for a new transfer box outside of warranty as it had a full BMW service history.
