I just had this done about 3 weeks ago and it was covered under my CPO warranty. Also, I did not buy the car from the dealer where the service was performed and warranty repairs honored.
I was pretty astounded as I thought I would have to argue a bit to get it covered under the warranty but there was no questions asked and it was covered. In fact I had the 4 tires rotated and rebalanced, the A/C drains unclogged, a 45K mile service performed (oil change basically)and they replaced the entire CC unit as some pixels were dying when displaying "OFF", only about 4 pixels were dead but they replaced it under warranty too.
Total charge $145.00
Not bad. (especially considering it holds 10 Qt of oil)

I was just using my example of a pleasant dealer experience for the same issue as the subject of the thread, but thanks for your contribution.
FWIW the CC head was $1100 according to the service rep, sure glad for the CPO!

yea bought a new X5 a few years ago and they were covering stuff like wiper blades, brakes, oil changes, brake lights, etc... if i had a problem, i took it in and they took care of it without charging me. a friend of mine just got a CPO BMW and she says they still do it that way
they werent perfect, but it was nice to know that a ~$1000 brake job was covered

will likely get more Audi care since they only give one year, but even that one year doesnt match BMW's maintenance plan...and theirs is for 4yrs

But what is the price of the comparable BMW? It may be more for less car to cover the cost. They have to pay for it somehow....
That's not part of the CPO. You have to buy extended service to get this coverage(beyond 4yr/50K) and it isn't cheap.

So, I will never take my car to this dealer again for work outside of warranty work. I will not buy my next Audi from them either. Oh well, about all I can do.
