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,

  • AS he said, you can shop around buy from the cheapest, regardless of where in Oz you bought.
    Also, can be done at time of purchase or later, just as long as the factory warranty is current.
    Of course, delaying risks a higher price. But if its going on credit maybe they cancel each other out.

            That is still $600-700 too much. Call Jamil for a better price.

              • Guys just to let you know. I bought the VW used car extended warranty (underwritten by Allianz) for my Jetta. It is a 3yr 200k warranty with no limitation on parts claimed. Bottom line it was $1400.

                Cheers

                • Subject to me not missing out on extending my original VW warranty, does the new car 3 year warranty begin from the build date of the car, or from the purchase date?

                    It can't be the build date, otherwise, owners stand to lose up to 1 year of warranty in some cases.

                      • Thanks guys, just wanted to confirm the obvious.
                        I had a friend tell me that although his car was picked up in December, a dealer said that his warranty as logged by VW actually finished before December???, and he needed to get the extended warranty asap???
                        Anyways, sounds like a communication error or something, I would have thought it was from the purchase date.

                        Thanks

                        • i have confirmed that the car i just bought first registered 08/08/08 has an expiration of 29th of july on its warranty possibly due to when vw delivers the car to the dealer ???
