Thanks for your input. A couple questions:

1) Can you point me to the warrantly corporation you used so I can compare to the one I am looking at?

2) I don't think the nikasil is relevant to me because the V12s didn't have the problem. But good point, nonetheless!

Thanks again.


Be extremely careful how your intended extended warranty contract is worded. I have a 3-year extended warranty contract on my 1994 740iL that I think I selected very carefully. I wanted one that would cover my Nikasil engine block if I ever had trouble with the sulfur contamination problem. Concerning the engine part of the contract, most contracts are worded something like they will cover the repair of a engine if damaged by a rotating lubricated internal part. A contract like that would never cover the replacement of a Nikasil engine block if it became necessary!
