2006 BMW M3

Yep, this all works out for me because the previous owner bought this warranty two years ago and it cost me approximately $0 extra. I can replace a wheel bearing in 30 minutes, I'd just prefer not to if the thing Don paid for will do it for free.

FYI, the total estimate here, if I paid Gary for all parts and labor and the warranty covered nothing, is right around $3k. Maybe a bit less. I'm getting parts alone for under $500. This is why it pays to learn to spin a wrench, and why so many people who aren't us bitch about how old BMWs are "so expensive to own."
