I am not doing any maintenance myself to be clear.

Personally no as for maintenance I prefer to be self insured aka rainy day cash fund for that. Non-maintenance that is a different story and depends what n the vehicle. Never bought an extended warranty for any of the prior Lexuses, wife's 2017 X5, wife's 2024 X5 but did so (BMW Platinum) on my 2020 M850i as a completely different animal.

I bought the Platinum from BMW Camarillo at great pricing 84 months or 75k miles; I only have 14k miles thus far. With my X5M approaching to the end of its warranty (time wise), I did not want to take any chances. Some BMW’s fair out well until 75k miles, but some others don’t. With the amount of sensors and electronics, I didn’t want to take chances. Long gone are the days that I used to have time to work on things that would break in my car. I will only touch my car to install upgrades 😊

Anyway, forum member GOLFFRR hooked me up with their dealer. Christine in the same dealer was responsive and helpful. We will see if I end up using it or not. But with a $15k engine and having worked in warranty claims early in my career, it was either extended warranty or selling the car 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hope this helps anyone on the fence….
