Q4 extended warranty

[325iMSport]

Does anyone know how much the Audi warranty costs when it's up for renewal?

Also I recall last year when Audi where offering 2 year warranty on these used cars, I presume this is no longer the case?

Find a 23 plate car of the same model on AT and use the number plate from that to get a quote on the website?

I have but I believe the price is cheaper when a car is already under warranty and when you get your renewal letter.

This is the same with BMW, my warranty renewal was around £800 but if it lapses and I start the warranty, the price was around £1500!

One EV-specific point worth factoring in: the high-voltage battery and drive unit are already covered by the 8-year manufacturer battery warranty, so an extended warranty on a Q4 is really buying cover for everything else - suspension, electronics, HVAC and so on. Worth reading the exclusion list carefully, as wear-and-tear items and the 12V battery are often excluded, and per-claim limits can apply.

And as you've found, keeping cover continuous is usually cheaper than letting it lapse and starting again, so if you do go for it, don't leave a gap.

Worked the opposite for me earlier this year with my etron. Audi quoted me £1500 for an automatic warranty renewal, doing a manual quote it was <£500 for the same cover if I accepted a 1 month delay to starting the warranty.
