Extended Warranty

[donweather]

Skoda App above increases warranty period from 3-5years but no increase in kms. Sneaky by skoda or a mistake?

I was told a similar thing. 6 months later, nothing - maybe lost in the post? I don't care, its in the contract and on the invoice.

That's very true, but then as owners, we would expect better customer services from Skoda, just for the peace of mind.

i dunno but when i bought mine it was unlimited km. When did they put a cap on it?

I think it is unlimited for 3yrs, but the the extension must only apply to 150,000km. Is sneaky, but it costs a bit less now than it used to.

Can someone please tell me where in the Skoda App you find the warranty page information please? I can't find it, even after searching "Warranty".

Edit: Don't worry.....just checked and noticed I haven't put my VIN in yet. I assume once you're VIN is entered the warranty information is easy to find.

Just spoke to the dealer and it's true that they send the info out at the end of the month after the car has been picked up. He emailed me a copy of the paper work showing it's been logged and approved.
Regarding the Km amounts, he also finds it strange that it states 150000Km as he has always known it to be unlimited. It also states unlimited on the paper I got when I picked up the car.

Might be a euro thing and shows up by default. Unlimited Kms warranties I thought first started in Australia. I remember not so long ago when Falcons only had 12mths warranty and everything tended to break on them just after that.

I think woofy is right tat there are some shennanigans regarding unlimited /150k. I think that's one of the reasons I didn't bother buying extended warranty as I would have hit the 150k before the time had run out - or my yearly kilometres was more than what they allowed.

Yes, once you enter your VIN details and add your car click on [My Car] and then [Car Data]. This will show the warranty details.

Long time lurker here, first time poster.
I picked up my MY15.5 Octavia vRS DSG kombi 2 weeks ago and had ordered it with the 2 year warranty extension. Just wondering what paperwork others received to verify that the car is covered by the extended warranty. All I got was a piece of paper stating that the warranty is 5 years, but it makes no reference to the car as in staing the VIN, just a signature from the sales consultant and myself. The stickers on the car also state 3 year warranty as well, not 5 but I'm guessing that is just the standard sticker they put on the car. Curious to hear what others have.

Sorry for going offtopic.

I just came to realize you said your car is MY15.5, may I ask what is the difference between a MY15.5 and a MY15 RS? If my car was built in Feb15, does it make it MY15.5 or MY15?
