$1,850 for a 3 year warranty from Volkswagen Australia, backed by Allianz l believe. My warranty expires in 4 weeks. I'll be taking this up. It's too much of a risk not to have.

I recently had issues with something draining the battery over a period of hours. Had to get VW Assist out a number of times to get the car started. It turned out to be two non related faults. There was a broken wire in the drivers door (no major deal, cost wise) and the factory SatNav system was faulty and had to be replaced. Had it been out of warranty, I'd have been up for about $2,500 to $3,000.

I just received a letter from Camberwell asking if I'm intereted in buying an extended warranty.
Mine runs out at end June so I'm interested in how much people are paying.
Is roadside assist included? Or will I have to join RACV road side assist after original warranty runs out?

AS per an earlier post - these guys have great prices - The lady I spoke to is called Jaz Hokin - 02 4254 2000 - She may be checking our forum out!

Ask for her as I guess she is on comms working in sales and she was very helpful indeed.

I got prices on a few models to cover us all.

Full Manufacturers Warranty - Additional 36 Months after original 36 months...
Make sure you read the documents etc as there are some KM exclusions (PM me with your email address if you want me to mail you the extra cover PDF)
***Does not include Roadside Cover***

R32 - AUTO /MANUAL $1417.95
GTI - AUTO / MANUAL - $1417.95
1.6 COMFORT - - $1038.00
1.9 TDI COMFORT/TRENDLINE - $1269.24
2.0 FSI - $1038.45
2.0 TDI - $1269.24

For the R32 , this is $741 off the RRP quoted in Sydney...

I know where I will be buying from..

Someone should make this a sticky - very useful

Cheers

Cool bananas.

Hard to believe our GTI is 2 1/2 years old already.

They didn't quote a price, just said call thier finance and insurance staff. I'd like to get an idea of cost before calling them. It seems that a fair price would be around the $1500 mark.

I'll ask if Road side assist is included?
