Can I service my BMW which is on pre-owned warranty ouside a BMW dealership like MIDAS?
I bought a BMW from a private seller and it is under pre-owned waranty until 2009. Can i service it outside a BMW dealership and still keep my pre-owned warranty. Reasons – Cheaper and easy to find service appointments.

There is no requirement that the service be done at a BMW dealer! Make sure that you keep records and receipts showing the the recommended maintenance was done, and you will have no problem!

Is it a BMW warranty or another extended extended warranty companies coverage plan? If it the latter, you can go anywhere you please. If it’s an extended BMW contract call any official BMW Dealership and ask what their policy is. Don’t for gosh sakes ever go to Midas for exhaust replacement, or any mechanical work. Deal with Monroe Muffler. All their exhaust parts are Walker products, the best aftermarket parts available. Most independent mechanics use Walker products. Avoid quick change oil places like the bubonic plague. Always go th an independent mechanic or a new car dealership. Less horrifying mistakes would be made there. For intricate mechanical work I’d certainly depend on a BMW dealership. You have a valuable piece, I certainly would not let any Tom Dick or Harry try to muddle through an engine that requires very specialized tools to do the job correctly.
