If this is the final offer, I think it's crap.
I think it's only based on mileage. At least that's all I can find.What about vehicle condition? I don't see that mentioned anywhere. Is that not a concern since the buyback cars are going to be scrapped?
Now comes the decision to gamble on the fix. IF VW can't come up with one, the compensation package is going to be much larger. That's why I've been saying the buyback is going to look enticing to most who have more than 50K miles on the car.If this is the final offer, I think it's crap.
Subjective good, excellent, poor applied to the car will get more challenges, the point of the settlement is to not fight each one by one. Mileage, that's an objective number on the screen, not really open to interpretation.I think it's only based on mileage. At least that's all I can find.
If they are possibly going to give me all but 5k that I spent on the car 5 years and 60K miles ago, I think that I will be coming out of this ok.If this is the final offer, I think it's crap.
Oh - the mileage adjustment is BAD!
Basically they are assuming that you only drove 1042 miles / month for each month after Aug 2015, and the remainder is assumed to have been driven till then.
That would be TERRIBLE for people who drive their cars a lot and drive down the value.

Mileage is from today, less 1042 a month between now and last Sept.SO I'm a little confused.
I have a 2015 Jetta TDI SEL which was fully loaded with all the options. I have almost 30k on the car now. I paid about 32k out the door because I bought a extended warranty. Am I going to be compensated for the warranty I wasn't even able to use a quarter of?
I have paid off about 3k of the car, how should I expect this to work. Will they just not give me any cash back and just take the car back?
I'm financed through VW, will I then get the extra cash after, minus my 30k mileage? This is bull**** because the longer they make this take the less they have to give us.
OR am I incorrect and mileage is based on our mileage from September, before the incident?
http://www.cand.uscourts.gov/crb/vwmdl/proposed-settlement#OwnersThe "$12,500 - $44,000" buyback plus compensation sounds like a pretty good deal to me... just wondering how exactly they'll pinpoint what each owner is getting. I've got a '13 Jetta so it's one of the newer vehicles, but I've also got relatively high mileage.. about 87K right now.

You start from a base buyback of $28006 30k miles less 10420 (10 months) put you in the -270 mileage bin, so the buyback price would
be $27736. Manual -900 alloy wheels +400.
Drive less than 1042 miles a month, and the buyback price goes up over time, drive more, it goes down over time.
Ah. You're right. I was sitting there thinking "that's a lot of money for a Passat TDI SEL," lol.A new fully loaded Audi A3 TDI, and at $44K only, the owner might be getting screwed.
You need to look at Attachment 2B and calculate. Like for my Sportwagen, it says take the number of months since September 2015 and multiply by 1024. So right now, figuring for July, that's 10 months. 10 * 1024 = 10240. You'd subtract that from however many miles you have on your TDI, and you get your adjusted mileage. I'm at almost 167000, so that would leave me at 156,760. Looking through the table, for my model year (2010), that leaves me with a mileage adjustment of -$3780 on the buyback and -$630 if I did the fix.Where can I see the mileage adjustment for my '11 JSW?
Yep - my wife is immediately going to cease commuting in the JSW. We're at 36500 and there's no way I want it to creep over the 40K threshold to knock down our mileage depreciation any more (Her commute is 40 miles daily, mine is 8). I don't think we'd lose the difference in fuel costs at this point.Based on the mileage chart, if I can keep the miles below 3000 for the next ~3 months i'll get another $930!
