I have just applied to have a brake upgrade as the Discs on My 147 GTA warped after I had a new set of pads fitted at about 28000 miles.
The Car is now over three years old and out of the warranty period.
I approached Desira, informed them of the upgrade, which they knew about. They agreed that the Brakes were warped, but due to the fact that the Car was out of warranty, would only agree to pay for 40% of the work. Has anybody applied for an upgrade out of their Warrenty period, and if so, was this the response from Alfa or the Alfa Dealer.

Cheers Wizzo147
