having had my bubbly dash repaired once several months ago in my s2 it has just started bubbling again. My car is now out of warranty - will I get this repaired for free???

Usually the repairs themselves are covered for 12 months from the point of repair. Is it within that time period?

My Exige seems to be suffering from the same symptoms, bubbly dash syndrome. Did your garage say what could be causing it, and how did they repair it. I have the extended warranty so hope to get it repaired under this. Did you have any hassel getting them to carry out the warranty work.

Cheers
Dave

When they fixed it the first time januaryish they said lotus had used the wrong sort of glue that didnt stick when the dash got hot in the sun - lotus dealer redid it but its now doing the same thing - havent contacted them about it yet. They repaired it by regluing the existing cloth type thing rather than using a new one i think - looked great to start with.
