What a van warranty covers in the UK

Cover is built around the parts that fail on vans rather than a generic component list. The areas van operators ask us about most are set out below, and each is included subject to the plan level and claim limit you choose.

DPF, EGR and AdBlue systems

Diagnosis, parts and labour for DPF, EGR and AdBlue systems are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.

Turbocharger and intercooler

Diagnosis, parts and labour for turbocharger and intercooler are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.

Clutch, dual-mass flywheel and gearbox

Diagnosis, parts and labour for clutch, dual-mass flywheel and gearbox are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.

Injectors and high-pressure fuel pump

Diagnosis, parts and labour for injectors and high-pressure fuel pump are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.

Sliding door mechanisms and central electrics

Diagnosis, parts and labour for sliding door mechanisms and central electrics are claimable up to your chosen limit when the fault is a sudden mechanical or electrical failure rather than routine servicing or wear replacement.

van models we cover

We arrange cover for Ford Transit, Transit Custom, Vauxhall Vivaro, VW Transporter, Mercedes Sprinter and Peugeot Partner, along with most other van variants registered in the UK up to 15 years old and 150,000 miles.

Petrol, diesel, hybrid and fully electric versions are all quotable, and Northern Ireland registrations are accepted alongside GB plates.

Why van operators take out cover after the factory term

A van off the road stops the invoices, so UK trade users tend to choose a higher claim limit and a realistic labour rate rather than the cheapest monthly figure — and low-emission-zone-compliant vans are worth keeping on the road longer.

How van warranty pricing works

Vans are priced on gross weight, age and mileage; business use is expected and does not invalidate cover.

Every quote shows the monthly figure and the pay-in-full total before you commit, with no admin fee added at checkout and a 14-day cooling-off period after purchase.

Making a van claim

Take the vehicle to any VAT-registered garage in the UK, including a marque specialist or franchised dealer. Ask them to send us the diagnosis and estimate, we authorise the repair against your claim limit and labour rate, and we settle with the garage directly wherever possible so you are not left funding the bill and waiting for a refund.

Frequently asked questions

Is a van warranty worth it in the UK?

It is worth it when a single realistic repair would cost more than the plan. A van off the road stops the invoices, so UK trade users tend to choose a higher claim limit and a realistic labour rate rather than the cheapest monthly figure — and low-emission-zone-compliant vans are worth keeping on the road longer.

Can I use my own garage for van repairs?

Yes. Any VAT-registered garage in the UK can carry out the work, including van specialists and franchised dealers, as long as the repair is authorised before work starts.

Does a high-mileage van still qualify?

Yes, up to 150,000 miles and 15 years old at the point cover starts. Vans are priced on gross weight, age and mileage; business use is expected and does not invalidate cover.

How quickly can van cover start?

Cover can begin immediately after purchase, or on a future date if you are waiting for a manufacturer or dealer warranty to expire first.
