There is an episode of The Simpson's where Homer finds out that the reason why he was dumb was because he had a crayon stuck up his nose, and it was impacting against his brain. He had it removed, and got smart. He was less happy being smart, so he had Moe stick it back up his nose. Moe hammered it farther and farther in, but Homer was still not acting dumb enough. Moe hammered it one more time, and when Homer said "Extended Warranty - how can I lose!" - Moe said "Perfect!"


It is a reasonable method to manage risk, but not a way to try to save money.

I took Troy's price to my dealer and they matched it. Quite a bit less than they were initially quoting.

Look at page 2.
Hi Cguy. Can I ask how much did you pay on your extended warranty? I'm going to pick-up my Q7 this Friday. They quoted me $3900+ for 6year/ 100,000 miles. Thank you.

Does Troy have an email or contact phone number?
Thanks,
Paul

Second this. After owning this car for a little over a month and putting over 3.5k on it already, I'm thinking of getting extended warranty. Was thinking of going with Geico MBI but I'm not sure that covers electronics which I'm mainly worried about in this car.

Note that the vehicle must have more than 10k left on the original manufacturer's warranty to get the official Audi VSP coverage through Fidelity with Troy. You will get the Fidelity coverage if your vehicle is in the 40k-50k mileage range and less than 10k left on the original warranty.
