Does extended warranty cover this?

I have a 2006 X5 4.4L with 91,000 miles on it. The yellow indicator light came on that it is due for an inspection.
It also has the 6 yr/100,000 mile warranty according to the dealer.

I want to know if anyone knows if the following is covered:
Park Distance Sensors do not work. The indicator light on the lower center console flashed when I put it in reverse.

Transmission thunk. This is the common problem where it sometimes feels like someone just rear ended you at 30 mph.

Funky electrical issues. With the ignition off and has been off for more than 30 minutes, the CD player will cycle like it's trying to load a CD. No CD is in the player.

HVAC fan speed increases and decreases for no particular reason.

Thanks, any help is appreciated.

I don't see why most if not all of that would be covered. They are not really wear and tear items like trim pieces, etc. Go to a dealer you trust. Get their best service advisor. Give him/her a nice tip up front and wait for the results.

Hopefully it's covered. BMW CPO warranties really suck and are VERY limited. Many find this out after the fact...that is when something goes wrong and they "think" it's covered. I think you hit the nail on the head with the last sentence. BMW spells out what's covered and what's not covered under CPO or extended warranty, but I don't think very many of us read through it. It actually is very limited and nothing similar to the original warranty in terms of coverage.
