Default Is your car over 3 years old or 50k miles?

(You say you have a 2000 car, which is why I ask...)

If they won't cover them, look to buy some better ones.. the Designit mounts (sold thru AWE) are awesome... they ain't never gonna tear I love mine!

If it's your snub mount, then there are several good (similar) after-market options.

Default Every part except tires covered under factory warranty ...

Assuming you're stock, as your sig says, there's no reason motor mounts wouldn't be covered ... unless you're outside your warranty period.

Default Stock car, but I am on the Certified warranty, which as I read it should

cover the motor mounts. I told them I will just call AOA and he said he would check with his warranty guy again.

Those are not warranty covered, but are Audi Advantage covered in the US.

well, if you are under some type of warranty, I would assume they are covered...

Default That's what I meant ... Audi Advantage, not basic warranty.

I forget other countries don't automatically get Audi Advantage coverage and use "warranty" interchangeably.
