Hey, does anyone know if wheel alignments are covered under the warranty. My X is starting to pull to the right. TIA.

Had an uneven tyre wear problem due to too much camber on the rear. Guess what? Wheel alignments are not covered by the warranty. It is also an inclusion under the title "Items not covered by warranty" in the warranty handbook.

nope...

last time i had a wheel alignment for $190 at bmwsf

(...i'll be there tomorrow... )

$190?? Holy crap. Dealer here charged $100 for an alignment few months back.

Are you sure that your problem is the alignment? maybe have a reputable mechanic look over your front end components.

Thanks, should have read the manual. Was pretty sure that it's not covered, but good to know other's experience. I am pretty sure it's just alignment is a little off. Everything looks pretty tight down there. I know of a good shop here that can take care of the alignment. Thanks.

Go to an Indy shop. Dealer wanted $150, indy BMW shop got it done for $129 minus 10% BMW CCA discount (so it was like $117).

I had the wheel alignments done for $250 -- after dealer had replaced front brakes, rotors and cv joints.

I was lucky and had my rear alignment checked for free by my dealer. I think it was a "good will" thing.

I have a 2005 cpo with the inside of the right rear tire worn out. Looking from the rear I can tell the negitive camber is much more in that side. I may be out a tire and allignment charge.
