Easy Care Warranty/Exhaust Problem?

[Mac]

Does anybody on here have any experience with Easy Care warranties?

Over the past weeks my 03 1.8 CVT has gotten progressively louder, but I haven't noticed anything other problems (lower gas mileage, CELs). I'm thinking it may be an exhaust leak of some kind, and I might as well just take it in.

This will be my first time using my Easy Care warranty purchased with the car at 35k, so I'm wondering what to expect.

This was the only thing that VAG came up with:

00710 - Defroster Flap Positioning Motor (V107)
41-10 - Blocked or No Voltage - Intermittent
