Extended / Aftermarket BMW Warranties

Dec 21, 2005 4 Replies

Hi,



Just bought a '99 323i w/90K miles.



I had a pre-inspection done at local BMW and they found only a couple minor issues.



Most of which would not even be covered under waranty (belts, SRS Light, bushings, PVC hose, etc)



Looking for a reputable aftermarket warranty company.



Any suggestions?



I googled but the amount of information was enourmous and conflicting.


I am mainly concerned about 'disaster' type coverage. (Engine, Transmission, AC, and other big ticket items)



Is it worth even getting an aftermarket warranty?



Thanks Bob Presutti


These aren't common problems on any BMW until very high mileage.

No.

What constitutes very high mileage? 100K? 150K?

On almost anything upon which it's offered.

Generally higher than that. Most cars are scrapped before needing major mechanical replacement.

Yup. Far better to put the premium into a high interest 'maintenance' fund.
