Hi Guys,
I was reading along and a great gang you guys are. I have question and need your advise and it did came up a few pages back. My 1 year warranty is almost up with BM HK and thet sended me some warranty plan and I can't decide if its worth to tag along with it. They said once you dropped out you can't rejoin after 2yrs. But paying over $9,000 for an free oil change for the 2nd yr and bits just don't justify for me. Warranty is like insurance which is like a bet. So I am leaning towards not to with it...cuz I am cheap...
Thanks!

$9000, I think it is ok to extend it once, but make sure you find yourself a garage you trust to do the normal oil changes, etc. because BMWHK simply won't change the oil nor the wiper blade, etc. and while doing so, get the garage to check the car carefully, make sure BMW fix it without delay like my case...
But, you would be bounded to almost no mod, unless you are like someone special in this forum

Welcome Au!
As Simpsons says, if your car is brand new or less than a year, i would go for the warranty option for another year or two.
9000hkd for oil change does sound expensive but it will include other parts and labour for the peace of mind.
In machanical aspects, E60 is pretty much bullet prove but we had few members having some minor electronical problems (e.g faults code..etc)
So for the safe side, i would go for it!
but after the extanded warranty, find a decent garage to do the usual maintainence and forget about BMW
