US Car in Canada - warranties/recalls
How will having a US 335i in Canada affect me in terms of my extended warranty's with the HPFP and the Wastegate rattle/turbo warranty.
Would a Canadian dealer honour the HPFP issue in Canada on a US car? What about for wastegate rattle/turbo replacement? Thank you! |

I imported my car 2 months ago. I was able to register the car with the DMV with the Vehicle Warranty Inquiry and not pay the $500 to BMW for the recall letter. When I called BMW to talk about an extended warranty, they said I would still need to pay the $500 for the recall letter and then I would also have to pay for them to inspect the car (Around $200) if I wanted to buy the extended warranty (which was not even a BMW warranty, but a 3'rd party warranty). Your gonna get screwed either way my man. I choose not to follow through with it. I figured $500 + $200 + 3000 (maybe more) for the 3'rd party warranty is almost $4000. When my turbo's go, i can have them swapped out for upgraded stage 1's for way less than that. Saying that, BMW has to replace the HPFP because they had a recall on that item.
