Audi's Lifetime Value Services include an active extended warranty. The extended warranty needs to be bought in 15 days (before or after) from the date from when the standard extended warranty expires. The Audi car though needs to have 100,000 km or less on the odometer. Customers also have the option to purchase an extended warranty of one or two years over the active extended warranty.
