Default 2007 RS4 Warranty

Guys
My Audi factory warranty will expire in August. I have 40k miles and intend to keep the car atleast for another 1-2 years. Any thoughts if memebers have gotten 3rd party warranty, any opinions, experience, insurance companies, etc will be appreicated.

I think you are better off putting the money aside to pay for the repairs then buying a warranty. They nickle and dime you and many are not reputable businesses.

i deal with alot of aftermarket warranty company's usually its not a big deal getting things fixed, only major thing i have had to fix on a RS4 was a broken valve spring. but thats atleast 30hrs of labor

bad idea imo... if your AC fails in the middle of summer a compressor job costs $2,000. not to mention anything else that can go wrong does not cost a couple hundred bucks. it's an expensive car to fix.

For the money, you are better off CPO'ing the car at the dealer for $3500...at least you know they will stand behind it.

Many, a lot, several (not all) after market warranty companies are shady.
