here's my deal
04 6mt with 80k on it. just did complete timing belt, valve cover gaskets etc, plugs, new front airsprings, new clutch, brakes all around, aux water pump , blah blah blah
my cpo runs out in sep 8 months from now. Bruce M couldn't help me out due to the miles... darn
I can extend my warranty through Audi like this: powertrain for about $3200 (covers turbos)
or bump it up to the "silver" which adds steering, brakes, A/C, front suspension, and electrical for about $4100
but that will only add 24 months coverage and I must purchase within 5000 miles.
should I buy an extended or just let the cpo run out and hope for the best? stock turbos scare me. chipped with piggies
please advise my allroad friends
Thank you everyone!

$3000-$4000 buys a lot of repairs over the course of two years. I opted not to get a warranty when I bought my '04 with 40k miles last year. I'm willing to take the risk and pay for stuff when it happens, rather than pay a lot up front and not use it.

My ar just hit 94K and it was time to re-up on the warranty. I got the silver and paid about one fourth less than what you were quoted by your dealer. I would shop around all the Audi dealers in the tri state area and see who can bring it down to about $3K with a low deductable and free loaners.
And believe me, it pays for itself and then some.
