I have an Elddis motorhome which is due for its 2 year first engine service.  Does someone please know a garage near Lincoln which can service a Peugeot motorhome under warranty?

    One issue you might have is finding a Peugeot dealer able to deal with a motorhome as often their premises are not large enough. Could the dealer that sold it to you not recommend somewhere?

    If you have a warranty issue it has to go to a Peugeot garage but if it’s for a service then you should be able to find a Class 7 (up to 3.5t) garage that will do a “Peugeot Service” which means that they will use Peugeot approved parts. My recollection is that somebody like KwikFit can do it. 

    There seem to be very few Peugeot garages that can take motorhomes and I had to travel for an hour for a warranty claim even though it could have been fixed outside without needing the clearance provided by a workshop.

    Previously had Fiat based motorhome with never an issue.  Wish I had not bought Peugeot.  Dealer had said no problem as I could go to a garage a few miles away.  When I contacted them they said not approved for a Peugeot.  Feel I was misled by the sales team.  They now say can do the service, but if anything wrong I have to pay for the parts and fitting, or go elsewhere.  Not good customer service.  I rang Elddis and all garages they recommended said not able to do Peugeot warranty.

    Try an Internet search for “Class 7 garage near me” or similar then phone and ask whether they can do a Peugeot service. Some KwikFit garages do Class 7 and I believe they will do a Peugeot service. I think it just means that they use, for example, Peugeot recommended oil filter. 

    I had a problem finding a garage until I did as above and found that there was one 5 miles away.
