I was wondering when you lease the E60 will BMW cover the Clutch wear, flywheel etc?

What will they cover and void?

I'm not sure but with the full maintenance warranty here in the US, unless they can prove abuse, I'm betting the warranty would cover the clutch -- just like it covers brake pads, etc.

With this warranty, the only thing you need to do is take care of gas and tires...

Right and lease or buy they don't care. Infact they love maintaining short term lease cars, its cheaper for them to resell them as Certified preowned cars and this increase the brands resale value. My car is owned by BMW Financial Services.

They replaced my clutch (and pressure plate as well as other related parts) on the E39 after 38,000 miles under maintenance service. Yes it has to be normal wear and tear and no sign of abuse insigh or you're SOL.
