2013 528i with 48K

My car is not CPO, but I got it for 5,500 under the LTV so I feel like I got a steal. It is the best driving car I've ever driven, and is absolutely beautiful. My main concern is the cost if something goes wrong with the car.

First, is there a warranty any of you suggest

Second, what should I expect maintenance wise over the next five years?

Lastly, with the car having 2g, is it worth it to upgrade to 4g to take advantage of connecteddrive.

I appreciate any help you guys can give me and I have thoroughly enjoyed the board. Really informative community.

Congratz!

Warranty:I got mine from MAP from my BMW Service Rep. I did get mine before my first one ended so I got a good deal.

Maintenance: Tires,Oil Change, Spark Plugs, Front/Rear Brake Pads & Rotors (maybe a few more I'm missing, I'm only at 77k)

48K now, so about at 66K in one year, at about 84K in 2 years and over 100K in 3 years. It's pretty easy to do a little search and find out the normal 2013 528i issues --- not many.

I had a 2012 535i that cost $2,522 in warranty-type repairs during my ownership of the car through mileage from 37,000 to 101,000. Then normal oil changes, tires, brakes, battery had a cost of $5,687 for the same mileage period.

At a 100k KM right now. Got winters on. Bought from a dealer that didn't have much maint record, but showed me a basic inspection and told me new oil. Also bought bumper to bumper warranty for 4 years/80k km..

Any tips for me?

[Alpine5x]

which warranty company did you go with in Canada? can you refer me to one?

[Zerpf10]

Not sure about referrals but the warranty company is called Coast to Coast
