I’ve been agonising over getting a Warranty lately (My Previous Thread) WW and WD both came out comparable on price, and Both have followed up with phone calls/emails to try and pressure the sale a bit.
TBH though I’m struggling to decide which is “Better” as they seem to offer quite different things, and Then you hear WD can be problematic, but they have the advantage of being based in Reading (according to the fella who rang) me so I can march into their offices and start shouting if they do piss me about…
I’ve started combing the exclusions given for both, and I’m looking into the various know common faults with our car, Gearbox, Engine and ECU’s make me the most nervous as the breakdown of cover/exclusions seems to get very detailed for all of these policies.
For instance it seems WD won’t cover an ECU that’s been “Upgraded or revised software and firmware (including patches and updates)” My reading there is that even a manufacturer/main dealer applied software patch carried out for safety reasons could void the ECU cover?
Cover for MOT failures sounds handy too, but then are there different exclusions/cover terms for that portion of the policy?
I’m Happy to pay £300-450 P/A if it actually covers the things we’ll need, but I am very suspicious/dubious having read around the topic a bit now…
