I am going to spring for an extended warranty on my RS6 that was delivered before Christmas. I am concerned about DRC, trans, turbo, or similar failures that I've seen listed on RS6.com.
I have a couple of quotes, and wanted to get some feedback on what you may have seen out there, recommended warranty companies, costs, coverages, and similar.
Here are the two I am considering, and leaning towards the exclusionary bumper-to-bumper to cover DRC failure:
