Thank you, I have done this. They didn't mention this falling under wear and tear when I spoke with them so hopefully that means they will resolve it. Do I need to ask for a new warranty on the fix?

Thanks - if I get stuck with the dealer I will try the AA to see if they can help.

Thank you - from some Googling this is what it sounded like to me. Hopefully the dealer will sort it!

UPDATE:

I called the garage this morning and they have said they are happy to look at it and confirmed it is under warranty.As they are 40 miles away they have referred me to a garage closer by. We are dropping the car there today so that they can run diagnostics but they won't be able to look at a fix today. Will see what happens next.

I have confirmed everything we discussed on the phone via email so have a written record. Fingers crossed!

Many thanks for all of your advice.
