Extended Warranties for the 6R

[car_nut]

This week I was quoted $1465 by a broker (Kerry at Leaseworks) for an additional 3 years Allianz 'New Car Warranty'. My car is just under 12 months old, 6,500ks.

After reading its duty of disclosure statement in the pds (page 23) I decided to speak to Allianz about the mods. on my car, KW suspension, Milltek exhaust and different wheels (nothing else). Through an Allianz claims supervisor I was advised no problem with the wheels and cat back exhaust but because the car was lower than standard they would likely not pay out on ANY claim I made. I suddenly lost interest, can't see what lowering has to do with any drivechain warranty claim but she insisted such a claim would likely be rejected.

Just about to finish up out extended warranty. Very pleased and worth it seeing that I do over 1000km/wk. Sunroof failed and covered. Air con failed and covered. Rattle at rear seat belt covered. Now waiting for a valve for the egr which is covered.
Car has done 220,000km so far. Only issue has been servicing every 15 weeks. I might go to 20 weeks servicing and do it myself.
So do I run her into the ground or update?
