Default Extended Warranty Cost

Just curious if anyone has priced or bought an extended warranty for their A6 - whether it was from Audi or a 3rd party - and what the approximate cost would be for approximately 5 years/50K miles where most parts are covered except for a small deuctible.

Unfortunately, you can't edit. I forgot to add that I would like to purchase this policy right before the original warranty expires.

You can edit- there is a "I want edit rights" thread.

Was it easy to haggle down the price of the extended warranty? i've had cars where it was impossible (Mercedes) and cars where it was extremely easy (Honda, Infiniti).

I am assuming that that warranty starts at year one - so it's actually three extra years AFTER the original warranty expires? I am looking to see if there is a warranty that picks up after the original warranty expires (but purchased right before it expires) and lasts for four years or five years or perhaps 50K miles after the original 48K miles expires? I plan on keeping the car 8 to 10 years.

There are dozens of 3rd party companies who offer warranties of the such. they're a bit of a PITA to get a claim, and they dont work with every service shop.

Is Audi's only offer 7/70? there is nothing up to 100k miles?

no they have up to 100K extended warranty available, just costs more.

Check this thread (https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho....php?t=2817499). Both pricing and where to buy (alternate location than your dealer) is there. No haggle prices. Let us know what you go with. I might go with the same guy just before 10K since that's when the first increase in price occurs.

We are strongly considering the 2013 Audi A6 2.0. Since I am a little nervous about the transmission and we would keep the car for a period of 8 or 9 years - I would only buy this car with a strong extended warranty. I heard back from Troy with FD-Warranty. He told me that if you pick up the Platinum Policy at 9,999 (or less) mileage on the car that a 7 year/70K policy would cost $3,278 with a $100 deductible. That sounds like a lot and I have asked him what the policy would be for a higher deductible. I am hoping that the prices I have seen on here (approximately $1,900) is for a larger deductible. He did answer one of my questions: the policy is effective on the date the policy is taken out - it does not go back to the date you bought the car.

1900 was for platinum coverage with a $100 deductible
