What's a good, medium-sized sedan for touring?

The demand for manual gearboxes is so low today that it’s not worth car companies doing all the compliance work needed when they know they would only sell a handful of cars. You might have to loo at something like a Holden Commodore.

Lodging a goodwill claim

"Good will" claims are usually lodged by dealers having assessed the problem with the car, so you need to find a way to break through the barrier that appears to exist at the dealership and resolve the issue at that level. It is a seemingly justifiable claim; the mechatronic unit shouldn't fail on such a new car. You should also ask for a loan car while yours is being repaired. It's unacceptable that you are without transport for three weeks.
