The extended maintenance program is different from a CPO program (Certified Pre-Owned Warranty). The difference is:

Extended maintenance program ONLY covers STANDARD scheduled maintenance ie, brakes, BMW Inspections, Belts, Oil Changes, wipers and fluid changes. Don't expect much more out of the extended maintenance program and for the cost of it, chances are you can get this service cheaper elsewhere!

The CPO program is an extended warranty that only covers NON-wearable items excluding GPS/Radio System, Interior finish, exterior Paint (which is covered under the original warranty covered up to 8 years unlimited miles) you can find this info in your owners manual. there is also a list of the scheduled maintenance suggested by BMW. These are the items covered under the maintenance program. Both are very specific. right now an extended maintenance program for an 2005 x5 is $2495. Completely outrageous considering the cost for the maintenance scheduled up to 100,000 miles.
