Mr Tulloch who is Volvo Penta`s technical support executive at Watford refuses to supply me with the company`s approved procedures for winterisation. The reason that I need that is that RKMarine a Volvo dealer at Hamble failed to do more than change the oil last winter, although paid £290. As a direct result fresh water which had been probably sprayed up the exhaust pipe by an operative at Universal Marine in Sarisbury whilst removing fouling rusted the cylinders and seized. The engine is now judged beyond economic repair and the insurers GJW Direct refuse to cover engines against water damage. Neither firm will assist and Mr Tulloch washes his hands off the matter claiming that Volvo cannot specify what dealers do or do not do. He suggests that Mr Kimmersh at RK Marine will supply a list. Does anyone have any helpful advice as how best to get someone to contribute to paying for the damage?
