What doesn't it cover? I guess that's a better question. Hell, they way I hold my steering wheel caused the decal to rub off a little and they replaced that around 30k. I've never been denied anything under 3 year/50k.

I think many people mistake the BMW warranty like many other American drive train warranties or other imports. This waranty is all inclusive, including brake pads, oil changes, everything. Really is a big positive.

Well, my dad's Z4 had a dent in the oil pan caused by daily driving. Nothing out of the ordinary. They tried to charge him 2k for it, still well under warranty. He had to fight tooth and nail with the dealership over that.

Once you're through warranty, everything costs and arm and a leg. Not worth owning past that.
