For Extended Maintenance BMW now offers a "extended enrollment" option for cars that are no longer within 4 years / 50,000, but still within 5 years or 60,000 miles. Both will extend maintenance TO 6 years or 100,000 miles, they will not extend maintenance BY 6 years or 100,00 miles (please understand the difference).

Cost of Extended Maintenance for 4/50 enrollment for the X5 (E53 or E70)
$1,495 dealer cost
$1,695 MSRP

How do you know what day/month you are out of extended maint/warranty? Is there a website or somewhere to check on the vehicle to get this info?

Thanks.

I just called any BMW dealer. they ask for vin # and it tells them everything.

I'm lazy, don't want to do any work except wash/wax my car. like peace of mind.

I spoke to Josh at Macon and he was only offering me the Extended Warr from Fidelity and not the BMW CPO one. He said the BMW was only for original owners. Are you sure it wasn't the fidelity one you were offered?

I was told the same thing also - In order to get the BMW CPO-like warranty until 100,000 miles I had to be the original owner, which I was.

Just talked to Josh and
- Extended Warranty ($3325)
- Extended Maintenance ($1695)

There is a bit of confusion here, is the ext warr through BMW or Fidelity?
I spoke with Josh today too and he mentioned Fidelity, cause I'm the second owner, but am not sure about how good Fidelity is.
