I advise that you select whichever plan you think you'll need and makes sense considering your driving habits and use. Can't recall exactly which coverage I signed up for but without it, I wouldv'e paid about $4,000 USD for recent repair work. Instead, I paid around $800 out of pocket. I never even spoke to them once...the dealer handled everything.

I almost bought the same plan. I went to BMW of sterling and told them that I just wanted the maintenance warranty and that I was going through warranty direct for around $3200 for 4 yr 100,000 miles. The Finance guy went and talked to his boss and he came back and said they would give the the BMW 6 yr 100,000 warranty from BMW not their 3rd party people for $3K. SO now my 03 with 36K miles on it is covered for 6 yrs 100,000 for everything for around 5K including taxes. I didnt buy the car from them either I bought from 3rd party. I just thought I would let you know. It may be worth a shot going into them and asking!!!

The 6yrs 100k BMW warranty and extended maintenance does not cover EVERYTHING. The 6yr 100K warranty is similar to CPO program.

You still have great coverage but don't want you to be shocked..

i dont think you are talking about extended warranty, but extended MAINTENANCE warranty, so if you paid 3K for that, then you were screwed by the dealer... and absolutely not the 2OP warranty since you're not the original owner of ur X.... you might want to clarify with your dealer what you have...

just want to let you know that im in the same boat here, looking/researching for 3rd party extended warranty.... right now, im considering Warranty Direct and GE, i just need to visit JMK-BMW here in dirty jerzee and speak with them about GE (which can only be bought from dealers, not on the internet)...

i will let you guys know the outcome.. prolly next week...

Warranty Direct SecureCare+ sounds good to me, they quoted me $2500 for bumper to bumper coverage including airbags. they list the things that are not covered under this plan, it sounds every reasonable. They work with BMW dealer in my area too. They have all other coverages too which cover only the big ticket items and some. But i rather pick the full bumper to bumper coverage to have a peace of mind. And that i am talking about is 4yrs/85k miles since my car has very low mileage 25K miles and i dont drive this car a lot, i dont want to spend extra money for miles i wont use. They say, basically this plan is about 90% similar to factory warranty except for wear and tear some some manual transmission stuff which i dont have on my car. what do you guys think?

Maintenance warranty 6yr/100,00= $1895
6 yr/ 100,000 bmw extended factory warranty = $3K.
