Is the maintenance loan capped at 4 years funding like tuition fee?

I’m retaking second year on modular basis and I wanted to self pay the tuition fee as only £1000 and I don’t lose tuition fees as only have 1 year left. originally I wanted to cancel student finance but now student finance told me I can still get a maintenance loan for this year and next? Is this true or can I get for than four years? You see as I started a different course in first year dropped out after 2 weeks - then reapplied next year on different course and was under the impression I could only have 4 years funding total and the drop out course counted as a year

Any advice is great thanks
