Hi All, Could you please suggest me an Extended warranty for my 2003 BMW 525i with 26000 miles. My car has BMW manufacturer warranty till April 2007. I got this car last week and I'm the 2nd owner of this car. I bought this car from a Non-BMW dealer. He is offering me to take 3rd party warranty from AUL corp (6years/100k/$0 deductible) for $1900. and also I got some online quotes from Continental for "Protective Factory plus" warranty (6years/100k/$100 deductible)for $2000. Did anybody using Protective warranty? As BMW is not offering any warranty after 4years/50k miles, Could you please suggest me of any reliable 3rd party warranty, thanks in advance, RK

Im thinkng about buying a used BMW, 3 or 5 Series. No older than 1995 no newer than 1999. At the moment Im just doing some reserch. Not really knowing what to look for or what to avoid. I would appreciate any advice as to where the Pittfalls lay when considering a used BMW. Ive just been bitten by the BMW bug and Im trying HARD not to rush into anything. I havent even driven one yet but I like the way they look and Im a big fan of german engineering. Anyway any advice or comments would be great. Thanx In Advance

Does anyone have any recommendations for an extended warranty for a 2003 325i with about 34000 miles on it? My warranty expires next week and I want to continue with the maintenance (I found a deal online for $945 for 2 additional years for the maintenance), but not sure who is reliable for warranty. Anyone have any experience with purchasing either of these? Thanks in advance, Jen

Replying to: geek_girl (Jan 15, 2007 9:46 pm) Because I purchased a CPO, I can't help much on your warranty question. I've seen a couple people write good things about Warranty Direct, but I personally would feel more comfortable buying an extended warranty directly from BMW.

I also got the warranty through them, but not sure if it's any better than from an external vendor (they charge $50 deductible). |

Replying to: geek_girl (Jan 25, 2007 2:07 pm) Can I ask which dealer you used to purchase the Maintenance Plan? I might wish to check them out, just in case. Thanks! |
