I haven't read it, but I suspect it is very similar to ones that I have read for other brands. If so, it says in a lot more words what it already says in the covered and not-covered page on the web: major components are covered, it is for defects in materials and workmanship only, thus wear and tear are not covered. They just draw the line a little more crisply than with a new vehicle, ie more things fall into the wear and tear category.

If you get the extended maintenance program, does it cover more of the "wear and tear" items? I thought that is what I was told. I need another beer :beerchug:

Yes, that is precisely the definition of the maintenance program, replacement of wear and tear items. There are at least two distinct maintenance programs:

• Scheduled maintenance replaces scheduled items such as filters that are programmed to be changed at a certain date or mileage.
• Full maintance replaces all wear items, which includes things such as wiper blades and brake pads.

The confusion results from the fact that many mistakenly refer to the maintenance program as a warranty, when it isn't a warranty program in any sense, it is just prepaid service work.

Came across this. Makes interesting reading. SIB 110109 and SIB 010508.

"CPO Service Guidelines – Maintenance Tables"

Not saying much for CPO. LOL

Yes and no. BMW is just clarifying what deems to become a CPO and what doesn't so that they don't get screwed in the end and, in a sense, the buyer doesn't get screwed either.

Okay, found it. Here is the brochure / document per my original question:

and the final pages.

Very good dig out and post, X5Meister!
