i wish it was just the deductible. i had to pay for the new radio/nav unit that costs $610 as well as that diagnosis fee to find out what the problem was which was $125 + $50 deductible. RAPE

Yep... just evidence here that CPO DOES NOT COVER EVERYTHING. it does not cover electronics... Yeah, having a bimmer or any car has its pros and cons...

mrbmwx5 - where did you get those fogs? Is your pic photoshopped?

Original poster:

why do you have to pay a deductable if you paid for the parts? I think the "diagnostics fee" is the dumbest thing i've ever heard of. Maybe alot of people were bringing their cars to BMW to diag the issue then saying "ok thanks, bye!" and bringing it to their indie shop to fix it.
