Does the plan cover all servicing ie. brakes, oil, filters, wiper blades, battery etc. etc. ?

How do you find out which version of software you have/ In my X I would just see it at the bottom of the nav screen.

Jimbo, there was thread about someone who had worn out his pads in 13,000 miles that the dealer basically said that it was not "normal wear and tear" and that his aggressive driving caused the need for early replacement. Because of this, the dealer was not going to replace under warranty.
