Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • hey guys,

    just a heads up, the VW 3yr/60km New Car Extended warranty that is backed by Allianz has now changed to 2yrs/Unlimited kms. This is effective as of today. I know this cos I left it too late to get the 3yr/60k one and had no choice but to get the 3yr/100km (total) Allianz New Car Extended Warrranty, which I have been told is the same. Hopefully it is! I didn't want to the 2yrs/Unlimited one because I don't drive that much plus it costs more than the 3yr/60k one whis is silly! Escpecially for those who don't do much kms each year.

    Anyways got my 3yr/100km (total) Allianz new car extended warranty through Chatswood Classic Cars (Amit). Great to deal with. I know this thread is only for the VW back one but if anyone can provide me feedback either through pm or via this thread with regards to making a claim. I just want to know if it is any different from the VW backed cover.

    Cheers

    • hi bee,

      I just get the same news today as well, also from chatswood classic. How much did you pay yours for?

      • Swann is only aftermarket extended warranty for term of lease and not car insurance.

        According to Smart Salary, their Swann insurance is as per the VW one (but for my own needs, I will be purchasing the VW one as its piece of mind given the problem with my ACC at the moment.)

        I've had a mate who had his car stolen then burnt out and Swann was his insurer. Swann got a private investigator, put him and his missus through multiple separate interrogations (no other way to describe it), and after a few months finally paid out with him hounding them. It was an awful experience.

                  for some reason, chatswood classic tells me only 12 and 24 months available? But I remember bee bought a 3yrs/100kms from chatswood classic as well but we deal with different person.

                    • A little research has provided the following info:

                      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.

                      • ^^^ Good to know.

                        I was thinking the three year, but at the rate bits are failing/falling off I'd prefer genuine parts.

                          If the genuine parts are failing/falling off maybe you should consider non genuine

                          Sweet FA difference between genuine and non genuine except that the former are overpriced.

                            Hmmm... You have a point. Good thinking.

                            The genuine and non genuine parts probably come out of the same factory.
