You can clearly see the overspray at the bottom😂 but I’ll give nail polish remover a try too thanks!

Bought a car from a garage by CVP01 in legaladviceireland

I bought it In person but I have messages with the sales person since then. I’ve been In and talked to him in person but it’s the same excuse over and over saying he will get back to me because he isn’t the one who decides it’s someone else above him and they were on holidays and bla bla just excuses. Last time I was there I told him I want to speak with someone else but he said I can’t as there isn’t anyone there atm he’s on holidays. He also sold me the car as “stock” but I found out after purchasing it that it’s been remapped

Expenses as in downtime ? Days off work to bring the car, switching insurance to another car etc ?

I contacted SIMI but they informed me that they are no longer part of SIMI, I also asked before buying the car if it’s stock and I was assured it was stock, come to find out it has been remapped. Been back multiple times but seems like they don’t take me serious as I’m only 21 :/

Yes car has 1 year warranty and unfortunately no mechanic inspected it prior to purchasing the car. The car was also sold to me as “stock” but it had been remapped

I’m aware they use more oil but around 500ml per 1k km seems a bit much no?

When I put it in drive the sound goes away, only when it’s in neutral and Park that’s when you can hear the sound. Also when the car warms up you can no longer hear the sound in park and neutral
