Quite a few of us on here have it - mostly for the included extended warranty and VW Assist.

Hi all after a rather unexpected extended stay at the dealers due to an intermittent DMP sense of humour failure and unable to install software updates VW have authorised a new unit to be fitted. I’m wondering if anyone has any insight on performance benefits as presume since my 2020 unit...

It’s also included in the extended warranty under the all in plan, I called VW last summer and they confirmed this

Cheers @Whitty - you've just saved me £200 that can be will be spent elsewhere on the Bus :D My original 3 & extended 2 year warranty ran out 29th Feb. Happy days :thumbsup:

£1000 just to replace crank shaft main seal. Only done 35000 miles. Dealership said I should call VW to argue the toss. I’ll try that ?

Do you mean this - Volkswagen All-In Service Plan & Warranty | VW Vans Although not perfect it should give peace on mind.

Hi Dell. Re EGR, did you do anything with the EGR I sent you?

It’s the extended warranty, first time they flushed it back in 2022 they changed the front pipe to a new design and flushed it on good will, this time yhey said VW wouldn’t do it for nothing but where helping out with a good will contribution. I know many feel dealers have them over but I’ve...

don't see why not. . . they did mine under factory extended warranty. (2x flushes then replaced the EGR valve & cooler)

Known issue on early T6's. VW changed this item to a different design.

Take out an extended warranty 12 -36 months!

IMO pretty bad that extended warranty is even on peoples mind when the vehicle is only 6 years old with 36K miles. That’s the reality of new VWs. I think it comes down to how much you value the £42 against inconvenience and potential additional cost. It’s a form of gambling!

First oil service for the van today (@ 1 year/ 6600 miles). Used a local independent and he told me the oil and filter looked like new, but I'm happy to have them changed annually if it'll help with long term reliability. Whilst the van's under warranty, my plan is to use the main dealer for...

i feel your pain . . . . two times, ( as we have two vans with VW extended warranty) but sometimes it works out well. we have had tons of stuff done under warranty that would have otherwise cost a fortune,. ie DMF, EGR, DMF again, DSG, DPF **************************************************...

Well if that’s the German way that’s the way. It would not be for me as I want full VW support afterwards which you may not get that if they have not done the work. What I always do is take extended warranty whilst I own the vehicle

...test with computer plugged in ..no faults…only advice was if happens again Don’t let anyone reset faults till they see it ( still has a year to run on extended warranty ) 18 reg 204 T32 44500 miles….was driving it hard at the time….hope you find the cause.. Please post with any updates :thumbsup:

Thanks Dell, I read a lot of your threads on here so appreciate the reply. It’s 2016 so doesn’t qualify for the all in warranty package as over 6 years old. We’d do circa 10k a year in it so even if we had 12 months warranty we’d be sitting at 40k on the clock and these issues might not rear...

I'm similarly still in factory warranty so can't get All In, but also I did get the 2 year service plan while it was on sale which should get me to end of warranty. Nothing says that have to be exactly every 12 months. Which reminds me must get it booked in as I'm likewise wary of extended...

No hehe he spent extra on extended warranty. Youngest is 19 on the right. The dealer on the left thought we were mates and that youngest was about 30!!

My 2018 kombi had its resistor changed under extended warranty march 22. Failed again November 22. I swapped out two more resistors, until March 23. It then went into the dealer and had a new fan motor and resistor pack fitted under extended warranty. So if you change the resistor pack, it could...
