      There are 2 Allianz products on offer. The up to 3 year Allianz branded one sold by some dealers and being offered at a discount replaces any parts with "parts of similar quality".

      A newer more expensive VW branded product- Volkswagen New Vehicle extended warranty (also underwritten by Allianz Australia) but with a 2 year unlimited km maximum and this one uses genuine parts only.

      If it matters, be careful that you get the one you actually want.
      I can confirm that the 2 year unlimited kms is "VW branded". I have just purchased mine today from Barloworld after doing a bit of research. I know Rob from Gold Coast VW browses this forum. He has given me a quote that's better than 90% of the other dealerships I've contacted, but Barloworld gave me a really good deal (maybe cuz I bought a car from them 5 weeks ago? and emailed my salesman who forwarded me to the finance department). They gave me an astounding almost $200 off what was offered by Rob.

      The documentation on the 2 year unlimited km is all VW branded... vs the older one where the PDS was all Allianz branded. I also wondered why the old PDS did not even mention VW anywhere? Do they use the same PDS for all their new car warranty clients?

            It's nationwide, meaning you can purchase extended warranty from any authorised VW dealer around Australia. And yes, I did get a quote from Rob for my car.

            • i'll be sending rob an email then

              so i'm going to do a bit of research myself, but have i got this right, with the new changes:
              VW branded - offers 2 years/unlimited kms
              Allianz (not VW branded) - offers 3 years/60 kms?

              when i spoke to Barloworld about extended warranty last time i was in there they said that if you bring the car in for a repair under (extended) warranty they run it through their systems like normal and then claim it through to Allianz.
              Which sounded great, because it means they fix your car first then deal with the insurer themselves.
              Does this apply with this new Allianz (not VW branded) 3yr extended warranty product as well?
              I don't want to get a warranty which needs to go through the hassle of going to Allianz FIRST for approval/permission to fix then my car gets fixed.

                I was talking to Allianz last night and they said you can either call them first or take it to the repairer get it fixed then put in the claim.

                What I also like is you don't have to take it to a VW dealer for repairs. I can go to any registered mechanic! They also use genuine VW parts for the repairs too.

                • guys just wondering when to get the extended warranty
                  do you wait until the current one almost finish before contacting vw dealer or after its finish or doesn't matter even though you have 1 year left like in my case.

                  do you need to be serviced by vw dealer all the time? or independent like vw village is ok

                  thanks

                  • You can purchase it at ANY time before the end of your Manufacturers warranty.

                    No, you can take it to any approved mechanic. VW Village will be good.

                    • Hi guys....The reason I'm buying the warranty mainly for the DSG transmission and the 3.6V6...
                      Which one is more suitable for me? Are there any non VW parts for engine and trans?
                      I'm only drove 17K over last two and half years......
                      So the two years unlimited warranty is really not as good as the old deal.

                      Please help me out with this.....

                        ah ok cool

                        So is that the case for both the 2 year and 3 year product?

                        cos what the guy at Barloworld was saying was that the extended warranty acted just like the original warranty (or at least the old product must have). So you as the customer don't even deal with Allianz. VW take care of all that AFTER they fix your car.
                        So is this new variant of the extended warranty the same thing?

                        Anyone know?

                        cheers

                          Ended up paying $1123.65 for the 3yr/100km Allianz new car extended warranty for our Jetta TDI.

                          that was really cheap, i was quoted $1607.69 for the 3yr/100km from Gold Coast VW.

                          did you buy your car with them?

                            No, we didn't buy it from them.(the next one will be). Rob was looking after us vwwc members. Make sure you speak to Rob. Cause I had the same thing last year when I got a quote from them and the lady on the phone told me $2000!

                              It will depend on the type of car obviously. I got mine for a GTI at around $1,700 too from GC VW last yr.
