Extended warranty

[Mk6 GTI]

Hi all!

I was wondering how much you were quoted for the 3 yr/60,000km extended VW FACTORY warranty for a GTI mk6?

Cheers!

Dont do it, you can still purchase extended warranty right up until the new car warranty runs out. If your car gets written off or stolen or you sell it within the 3 years then u get nothing back for it.

That's actually quite good advice from steve_tdi, although I too would like to know how much the extended VW factory warranty is.

Also, if you do defer the purchase, is it cheaper or more expensive?
Does the KM and Age affect the cost?
Does the options (or total original purchase price) affect the cost?
Or is it just a flat fee?

Actually i got the dealer to call VW in Germany and well if you total the car or its gets stolen etc in the first 3 yrs you can get a full refund. The price increases as time passes. They will also charge you the full amount when you get it later.

But of course if you buy it one day after you buy the car rather than "with" the car you won't have to pay Stamp duty on it

That's right... stamp duty in NSW is either 3% up to $45k or 5% over $45k

Hi,

My Mk6 TSi118 Comfitline is on order and I have optioned the 6 year extended warranty with the purchase.

Is anyone able to clarify if the extended component (2nd 3 years) is covered by VW or by a 3rd party warranty company? I have noted that in the US it is provided by a 3rd party (Infinity?) but my salesman (Brisbane) assured me that my extended warranty was provided by VW and was identical to the initial manufacturers warranty in it's terms and conditions.

Thanks

My GTI is coming from McGrath VW and they told me the extended component is a McGrath warranty for the extra 3 years /75,000 KM.

This was included for free however.
