Yes I have a 3 year royal cover with ASWN. I recently had my gearbox reconditioned $1900 worth. They covered it, no questions asked. They have local repair agents all over Australia.

You have to get your car serviced every 10,000kms (cars 10+ years is every 4,000 or something) and send a copy of the mechanics receipt along with it to there head office. Just to prove that the car is getting regularly maintained.

Am I glad I paid for the warranty? *** yes.:uh-huh:

There's also another company called CarGear which provides warranty for imports.. dunno how good they are, but Geoff from PMS recommends them on his website/mailing list.

What I've got is from Integrity Warranty. The dealer gave that one to me, so can't choose when I bought the car.

ASWN is CarGear.

Geoff is the one who put as on to it and also where I'm getting my car from:)

I had one of those on my Surf. Didnt help when I forgot to check the radiator for water and cracked my head. I have also heard of ppl having problems with claims.. just like with insurance companies, they are going to pay out as little as possible, and only when they really have to.

Question: if they agree to cover a modified car but will only replace standard parts, then will they cover a clutch that otherwise might have been fine if it wasnt for the extra power? obviously same goes for the rest of the driveline...

was interested when i first saw it, but i dont know if it will be worth it for me.

Warranty companies don't cover clutch plates/pressure plates, brake pads etc. They are like a consumable. Read the warranty terms and conditions on the website someone posted above.

    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay ย 
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.ย  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
    • Is this not just about people wrecking, and storing, multiple cars in their front yard? I now a tow truck driver that was contracted by the council to clean up housing commission front and rear yards in houses and unit car parks I'm all for working on, and doing maintenance on your car in your garage or driveway, but some people definitely take the pissย  There's one house locally to me that I walk past regularly where the front yard and driveway looks like a wreckers, multiple cars in various stages of being stripped, and the yard looks like all of fluids are basically dumped on the ground I may be wrong, but it seems that the initial reports, which I've seen nothing actually official about yet, may be getting taken out of context, like alot of the latest "the sky is falling" stuff found on the youtubes for clicks
    • have they? Link appreciated. I live in Casey. I can see both sides of the argument in this case. There's a lot of sketchy stuff going on. There needs to be a clear definition of what this is supposed to be IMO. I wager the intent was to be a broad sweeping brush against people who have 4 cars up on blocks on their front lawn, not someone who services their own car behind their own gate on a weekend bothering probably nobody. But it'd be hard to legislate the difference there.
    • Oh, the wheels were already off. I wouldn't normally take them off to clean them although it does make it easier with the ceramic, so I might take them off when reapplying. I don't drive much but now with the ceramic coat, when I do drive and they get dirty I can get most off with the pressure washer. I'll be switching to dirtier pads soon which was the motivation for the ceramic as I usually just clean them and sometimes use Autoglym wheel protector. Nah, f**k the barrels! Haha, I'll give them a quick scrub when they're off the car and a pressure wash, but even I draw the line with the barrels. Yes, dark coloured wheels allow you to get away with a lot! ย
