Default Transmission output shaft seal leak

2001 A6 4.2 with about 44k miles on it. Original 4 years warranty was over in July and starting the CPO waranty with a $50 deductable. Will the transmission leak be covered? The car was bought as a Cert pre-owned .

Default Nothing is covered.

Turns out that *everything* is a "wear item" :-(

Sorry, I don't really know, but no one can say for sure because Audi warranties are like the shifting sands of a windy dessert.

Should be covered. Mine was on my former MY2000 2.7T.

Default If they don't cover that, please report back.

They damn well should. It's a known problem on that transmission.
