Audi Warranty - comprehensive vs Named components

Post by Graeme4130 » Sat Feb 09, 2013 10:22 pm

Hi all
I'm about to reach the end of my warranty, and am looking at the option of extending through Audi for another 12months (when ill place an order for a B8 RS)
The cost difference between comprehensive and named components is huge (£1200 for comprehensive with £250 excess vs around 850 for named component)
The problem I have though is I can't find a list of 'named components' to see what's covered
Does anyone know what's on there or also just how 'comprehensive' the comprehensive insurance is ? Ie, does it cover everything such as seat clips or glovebox bolts etc as I've ever needed to make big claims on. Aj or mechanical components
Cheers
Graeme
