What is the warranty period for the Magotan's transmission?
3 Answers
The warranty period for the Magotan's transmission is 3 years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. Below are the details regarding the Magotan's transmission warranty: 1. The warranty has two conditions: one is the time limit, which is 3 years, and the other is the mileage limit, which is 60,000 kilometers. 2. During the warranty period, not all repair costs for the vehicle will be covered. 3. The free items specified by the manufacturer during the warranty period are usually detailed in the owner's manual and the after-sales service department of the car's 4S stores. The specific details depend on the vehicle purchase date.
I've been driving my newly purchased Magotan for almost a year now. I remember the salesperson saying that the transmission warranty follows the vehicle's overall warranty, typically three years or 100,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. I specifically checked the owner's manual to confirm this because I've heard that the DSG transmission in this car is prone to issues like jerking or slow shifting. During the warranty period, inspections at the 4S dealership are free, and it's recommended to go for check-ups multiple times before the warranty expires. Don't wait for minor issues to turn into major faults. Once the warranty is over, you'll have to pay out of pocket for oil changes and part replacements, which can be quite costly. It's best to develop a habit of changing the transmission oil every 50,000 kilometers to extend its lifespan, saving both hassle and money in the long run.
I've been driving my Magotan for over three years, and the transmission has never failed. The warranty is the standard three years or 100,000 kilometers, covering the entire vehicle including the transmission, as explained by the salesperson when I bought it. If you're within the warranty period and encounter any issues, just go to the 4S dealership—they'll repair or replace parts for free, which is very convenient. However, I suggest not relying solely on the warranty. Avoid aggressive acceleration during daily driving to reduce transmission wear and high maintenance costs. Once the warranty expires, like with my older car, even an oil change can cost several hundred yuan, so it's better to plan your budget early. It's advisable to purchase an extended warranty plan to cover a few more years for added peace of mind.
