I believe they only truly check brake thickness and tire tread depth. They then go by the computer for brake fluid and oil change requirements. Anything else has to be painfully obvious to repair/replace during the CPO process because it comes out of their pocket. If they can get away with it and you take delivery/drive off the lot then it becomes a warranty repair that BMW pays for.

Bingo.


A tech that always finds $3500+ of stuff to replace with each CPO inspection, will find himeself not doing CPO inspections.... IMO
