My 2008 535XI is approaching 50,000 miles, am looking at extended warranties.

Dealer quote for best 5 star coverage, 75000 mi. 36 month is $3345.

Carchex quotes a policy through Alpa Warranty services, 75000 mi. 36 month $2329 its thier Platinum pkg., and also includes seals and gaskets? Replacement of normal wear and tear items is $175 additional.

I have a company car now and 25000 miles on 535 in 3 years is about right.

Any feedback appreciated. Any expreience with Alpa?

I would go back to the dealer armed with the second quote and see if they would match that. They are so used working with their extended warranty company that any claim would most certainly be transparent to you and you won't have to worry about getting work approval, paperwork, etc. G/L
