Warranty
On the upside, the bridge warranty is legit. I have 63k miles on my 2014, so completely out of the original warranty, and I had a blower motor replaced, armrest trim fixed, and a headliner rattle fixed last week, all covered by the bridge warranty.
If you have a gen 2 and it's out of warranty, go get anything repaired before the fix is approved.

Just got my 1/2 payment from Bosch- and yes, it says nothing about it being half of the settlement amount... gonna deposit right now.
(and though I love our Q5, can't wait for this whole mess to be over with so I can get a S5 sportback!)

Bosch Update
Nothing but crickets from Bosch Settlement people.
I was promised a response by today, and nothing.
If I hear something, I will post.

(Editorial aside. I’m not sure why the Bosch payment is an issue of so much mystery and suspicion. Clearly, it has been based on a half now, half later schedule. Is anyone actually worried that Bosch would be able to trick the entire settlement class?)

Dear XXX,
Thank you for your correspondence.
There are a couple of reasons why you may have received a partial or split payment in the Bosch Settlement.
One reason is that your Eligible Vehicle claimed in the VW Settlement or Bosch Settlement is a Generation 3 2.0-liter vehicle and is currently in the two-part Approved Emissions Modifications (AEM) process. If you completed the first part of this process, you are eligible for 2/3rds of your allocation in the VW Settlements and 2/3rds of your allocation in the Bosch Settlement. You will receive the remaining third of your allocation in the Bosch Settlement shortly after you receive the 1/3rd supplemental payment in the VW Settlements.
Additionally, there is a 3.0-liter AEM (or ECR) that has not yet been approved on Generation 2 vehicles. If you were determined eligible in the VW Settlement, you would receive a “Participation Payment” that amounts to roughly half of your overall VW restitution. Likewise, your payment in the Bosch Settlement was roughly half of your automatic payment to mirror to that process in the VW Settlements.
Another reason why you may have received a split payment is because any Current Owner who purchased their 2L or 3L vehicle after 9/18/15 will receive half payment of their total Eligible Bosch Settlement payment when their approved claims in the VW Settlement or in the Bosch Settlement have been identified eligible for payment in the Bosch Settlement. The Current Owner who purchased their 2L or 3L vehicle after 9/18/15 will receive their Supplemental Payment at the end of the claims period (April 30, 2020), if no Former Owner or Former Lessee has perfected their claim for the Eligible Vehicle, at that time.
Current Owners who purchased on or before 9/18/15, will be paid their full allocation (not withstanding cases of AEM partial payment). In cases where there is a Former Owner/Lessee who has filed for the Eligible Vehicle claimed, the Current Owner will be paid half of their eligible Bosch Settlement payment at the time their VW Settlement Claim or Bosch Settlement Claim has been identified as eligible for additional compensation in the Bosch Settlement.
The Current Owner will receive the other half of their eligible Bosch Settlement payment if and when the Former Owner’s claim is withdrawn/cancelled in the VW Settlement (if determined that it is not possible to have a Former Owner for the Eligible Vehicle on the claim).

On the upside, the bridge warranty is legit. I have 63k miles on my 2014, so completely out of the original warranty, and I had a blower motor replaced, armrest trim fixed, and a headliner rattle fixed last week, all covered by the bridge warranty.
If you have a gen 2 and it's out of warranty, go get anything repaired before the fix is approved.

No problem.
I purchased my Q7 with 66,000 miles for $40,000 in December 2014.
Returned with 105,000 miles a few weeks ago for $45,898.
Now I'm just waiting for my Bosch settlement. Seemed like a no brainer.
I am pretty happy with my 2013 S6 I purchased from a guy in CA a few months ago. Even took her drag racing a couple days ago.
