Just because your manufacturers warranty has expired doesn't mean that you can't get repairs done free of charge. It's always wise to try both the manufacturer and seller to see what they will do for you.

I have had two repairs done to my oven which had a one year labour and five year parts warranty done without charge for labour more than a year after purchase. The second time was four and a half years after purchase.

I had a TV bought from Asda develop a fault 15 months after purchase. It was bought with a 12 month warranty. They not only replaced it with a brand new TV with a new full three year warranty on it but refunded me over ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£50 being the difference in price of the new TV and what we paid for the previous one.
