I am looking to buy a used TDI 2013-2015, probably a sportswagen.

Anyways, I have inquired about the warranty's and I have been told 30 different things it seems like.


I am under the impression that 2009-2014 models get a 10 year or 120K mile warranty while the 2015 models get a 11 year 162K mile warranty.

Many of the dealerships I have spoken to have no idea what I am talking about and I am really confused.

Even the service departments do not always seem to know.

Believe the settlement documents on this. They are authoritative.

09-14 get up 10 years/120,000 miles from original sale date or 4 years/48,000 miles, whichever is higher for the the tdi modification warranty.

So if a car has 20,000-30,000 miles on it and it's a 2014 which one would it get? 120,000 or 48,000?

Whichever one is the greatest is the one that will be in effect, as stated above in several examples. I would personally try and find a low mileage 2015 if the warranty is an important item for you. Much longer warranty terms.
