The local Audi dealer uses them and has not had any problems with them covering parts, and a local indy shop has also had good success with them. Fidelity did send someone to verify the validity of the claim the first time out, but now they have a good relationship with the indy shop and they just pay the bills.

Just got word back from Troy:

Fidelity Platinum:

5 yr / 60K plan for $1949.00
6 yr / 60K plan for $2019.00
6 yr / 72K plan for $2400.00
with standard $100 deductible

These are $2000 - $2500 less than BMW Factory. I think it's a no brainer...What do you guys think?

Those are good prices, go with what you are comfortable with. For me, I don't like being dependent on the dealer, especially when they are brain dead. Also, I am picky about who works on my vehicles, and I won't let the dealer touch them. On the other hand, others feel warm and fuzzy by having a dealer warranty and by servicing their vehicles there. It is just a personal choice.

Other good warranties are Tech Serv (what I have on the X5) and Zurich. Several folks here in the TCs have those and have not had problems with claims.

Hi,
I've got a 2006 X5 with 38,000 km on it and the BMW factory warranty will expiry Dec 22, 2009, and then I have 1 remaining year of the BMW Certified series warranty left. The Canadian dealer I bought the truck from said it would cost me $4000 CDN for 2 more years or 60,000KM if I bought it now. This seems steep!

Does anyone know if I would be able to purchase the BMW, not interested in the aftermarket warranties, warranty for as long as possible in time and mileage which would also be honoured in Canada?

I am interested in making a move on this before the Dec 22 date is here.
Thanks

I don't know about Canada, however, I learned I could save a few hundred dollars just calling different dealers to see what they offered for pricing on warranties. The time is the most difficult challenge...7 years from the in service date is the longest they extend the warranty for...I wish they went 8, it might be worth the $$$ for the extra year in my opinion...

Extended Maintenance
 

My X is running out of it factory warranty/maintenance but it is a CPO so I should be good on the warranty side for another 2 years. I am looking into the extended maintenance and how much it costs and if it's even worth it. I know a lot of you got great deals on extended maintenance so if you wouldn't mind sharing it I would appreciate it. (And also did anyone have buyer's remorse after buying the extended warranty :rolleyes:)


EDIT: Forgot to mention is a 2006 X5 3.0.

Thanks :thumbup:

Did you read this thread?

Meister: Yes I read through it but looks like BMW prices keep changing often and just wanted to know if anyone had purchased the extended maintenance recently and how much it cost.

BMW updates its pricing every year, not often. Re-read post 70 (page 7), then 115 (page 12), then 134 (page 14), then 157 (page 16). Then call Mr. Ryan Lee at Macon BMW and tell him you are an Xoutpost member. No one has gotten a better deal so far than $100 over dealer cost.

Just got off the phone with Century BMW Greenville, SC. Here is their over the phone quote for my pre-owned '06' E53 31,000 miles, original warranty good till 2/10.
Warranty 48 mon/50k = $4,295
Maintenance 24 mon/50k = $2,895
Think I'll pass and bank the money for repairs since I only drive it about 10k/yr and it is in great shape now. Also it is a no frills model, less stuff to go bad. I'll take my chances.
