BMW Warranty **UPDATE**

[Mark CSL]

Hi they will not cover the upgrade parts
But cover all the rest :thumbs:

As Mark says. They will still provide warranty and all that it covers, they just won't cover any mods or non-BMW upgrades. eg brakes/exhaust/suspension.

And Welcome!!!! :thumbs:

Hi Jon,

You should be able to get BMW cover - and dont worry about your upgrades, as they're classed as 'wearing parts' so wouldnt be covered by any warranty anyway.

I renewed my lapsed BMW warranty today after some careful consideration - in part due to my recent alternator failure just outside the old warranty period! :banghead:

I had to take a 'one-off' premium increase of almost £200 but with 4 trips to Europe planned this year as well as several UK track days, i feel the cover offers peace of mind with the additional benefit of European breakdown cover. Next year the premium falls in line with the usual rate.

Comprehensive cover, including breakdown, £100 excess: £1029 :bigcry:

I now hope to renew again so long as my car is under the 60k miles limit, as that's when the prices almost double for less cover! After that i will lapse again. My car is currently at 49k miles.

Like Mark, i just need to submit a couple of claims to recoup my outlay before the cover lapses again! :hahaha:

GD, the 60K thing seems to have disappeared from the website. Is that definite? I had my fingers crossed that it was all the same to 100K!

[bryce]

Noticed that too Nords, there's no mention of it on the renewal letter I received. It reads as if its the same all the way too 100k.

[SpineOnABap]

I think it's still there.

Many many months ago I did the tests on the warranty website. I got quotes at mileages of 59,000 and 61,000 and there was a big difference IIRC. It was ages ago though - give it a go.

the thing seems to change monthly at the mo - best thing to do is ring them

[Bealo]

Just renewed my warranty that i had stupidly allowed to expire.

I took Comprehensive cover inc Breakdown £0 excess £1179.

I thought it was wise with all the trackdays i do.

Since I took out my warranty (fully comp, £0xs) in Feb, I have had:

New seat frame
New O2 sensors
New Seat belt tensioner
New Diff

Worth every penny!

Did the dealer keep the old seat frame or did they give it to you?

If you have the old seat frame I'd consider buying it off you .. :beer:

[E46ACS]

No, they kept it.

warrantywise

Does anyone actually have a warrantywise policy? I'm unable to get the BMW one so have been looking at these guys. Seems reasonable but interested to hear any feedback on them before I take the plunge.

What reason they giving Wazadaza washes whiter !!

[wazadaza]

I see what you did there, do you do weddings?

Anyway it's because it doesnt have a full history as the previous owner did all the services himself at his garage (which he owns), using genuine parts though, I've got him to stamp up the book but not sure if they would be ok with it, I'll probably try them again and see what they say.

Lookslike no one has a warrantywise policy so maybe a first coming up
