Best aftermarket warranty for n55?

[jovbrat]

Hi Guys
I have a 2013 135i coupe
The factory plan is coming to an end and i have the option to extend for a further 2 years
BMW has quoted me 37k for a one year extension
The car has had preventative maintenance done and all the major parts that could go wrong have been changed, like the water pump, radiator, clutches and flywheel, new brakes and shocks

I am not keen to extend the plan with bmw as it does cost a lot for one year and im hardly around to drive the car as well
Are there any reliable good aftermarket plans that i can look at for my car?
Your feedback is welcomed

Had SAWarranties (M-Sure) on my 335i and no issues whatsoever, quite a few things replaced in the time I had it and they always covered the stipulated amount. They paid out close to R40k in repairs.

I had the monthly cover and step up policy, my opinion would be to pay for both upfront (Fusion Bumper to Bumper - around R14k + Step Up Premium - around R4k) and you'll be sorted for the next 2 years. Just bear in mind limits are lower the older the car is and higher the mileage, so check if it works for you.

Just a heads up, some gents prefer to save a little each month and do preventative maintenance, as the warranty only covers failed parts, ie your turbo would have to blow before they pay anything toward it vs. you attending to noises and paying out of your own pocket. It worked for me because things on these cars can get expensive, especially if you don't use them enough.

Thanks for the info bud, i have also contacted SA warranties, just waiting for them to get back
My mate works for Bidvest and their stuff also looks good, im just looking to have the car taken care off with manufacturer after the plan expires

Innovation Insurance has treated me and few other guys well.

hi not to thread jack but im in the same boat looking at the smg innovation warranty and the SAwarrenties main thing im concerned about is if they cover major things like rod bearings piston seals etc

Your coverage with Innovation is dependent on mileage,year model and whether you still have original motorplan left. I believe if you have no manufacturers motorplan left you get slotted into MotorDrive 3. Motor drive 1 & 2 as far as i understand is for vehicles with motor

plan left. Under MotorDrive 3 you get R30k engine coverage which should help alot towards bearings etc.
