BMW Brake Coverage
Can the track guys comment on BMW's willingness to replace worn out discs and discolored calipers from tracking?
Brakes are covered on the '16s, and for the '17s if you bought the Ultimate Care+ package, but what's BMW's stance on this? Thanks. Last edited by ZM2; 07-11-2017 at 03:06 PM.. |

I would say its doubtful they will replace the calipers for discoloration as to them its likely to be classified under misuse rather than a defect-regardless of what the real truth on the mater is.

Nope. They know why the calipers change colors.

My front calipers have changed color as well. I doubt they will replace them as I am sure the same thing will happen again. You are ready for a big brake kit in the front anyway. |

I got the $600 Ultimate Care+ (Full Maintenance Warranty is what its called) to include rotors and pads...would be curious if anyone has any experience getting them to replace pads and rotors under the warranty

How about just getting discs covered under the maintenance plans? |

I do know someone who had their rotors replaced without having the coverage. The only thing I can say is build your case and give it a shot. |

Getting my discs replaced. The key is to make a good relationship with your SA & technician and to be upfront. They'll help however they can.
As for the calipers, they said they can replace them one time and not all at once. So, will wait on that. |
