I dunno if you may be Mistaken or the rep misquoted but yes, the rate does vary from the time of purchase - whether it be 2 years before the OE warranty or 2 days before the OEM warranty.

However, unless things have changed, I don't see how you can get a *firm* quote and just call 2 months prior to the OEM warranty expiring before buying that firm quote. The quote they give you is also factoring in how much mielage you have had on car at the *current* time, etc.

Also bear in mind, that if you buy a 4 year, 85K warranty and you still have let's say, 1 year left on you warranty, the 4 years is EFFECTIVE from the date it was purchased.

I would just call WD and make sure what all these things are clear to you....

IMO, I would buy it a few week shy of the warranty expiring. Alot can happen between now and then.....

Buying one year(s) ahead of when you really want it/need it
to kick in, does not make fiscal sense to me.
