Today, I went to Bill Jacobs BMW in Naperville (1 mile from my house) for annual oil change for my X5 w 62,000 miles. They have $49 oil change special all week long and have em check oil leak undercarriage and atf leak on hoses Ive seen that started 3 days ago. Diagnosis- CCV hoses/tubes is leaking, ATF hoses are leaking & both CV boot about to go too,. I have GM's Protection Plan I paid $2,865 in sept 2009 thats good UNTIL 90,000 miles either/or by Sept 2013. Deductible - $200! Ah yeah. Thats all I have to pay cause they approved all repairs and I get X back Thursday morning all fixed.
I also told my advisor Don if there are other concerns or possible "about to break" parts on my X, let me know, then call GM Protection, IF they'll cover it, then do it. I want to pay that $200 deductible one time for all the work. ;-)
