VW's 3 Year Extended Warranty

IN2VWS · 23-11-2010, 06:55 PM

I am not confusing the warranties.
My T5 van was still under the new car warranty. The dealer was trying to sell me a cheaper "extended warranty" which is the same as the extended used car warranty. They did explain the disadvantages of the cheaper warranty. I am not sure about NSW, but here in Vic., The extended warranty, which is under written bu Allianz, is $2400.

Now please re-read my post, most of my comments are about the extended used car warranty, NOT the extension of the new car warranty. My point was that some dealers, including my local dealer, try to sell you the extended used car warranty because it is cheaper instead of the extension of the new car warranty.

Did you tell them you saw the deal on VWwc? They don't discount every policy - just groups like this one.

That's great but anyone in Australia can buy from Kim, Jaz or Jamil & get a 30% discount if they mention VWwc. That would knock the T5 warranty back to ~$1700

Thats a good deal. I wish I knew about it before I bought my warranty.
Who is Kim, Jaz and Jamil?

LOL!

Jamil was at Denlo VW - he has been transferred to Narellan Subaru (both dealerships are under the same umbrella company - Inchape). One can still purchase the VW extended warranties through him. Just give Narellan Subaru a call and ask to speak to him.

First warranty claim on extended warranty a couple of weeks back, faulty ignition coil on number 2.....replaced without question (would have been $160!)

Hooray, we finally have someone who claimed and it was a good experience.
