If you're in a position to take pictures when the dealer disassembles for the repair it would be great if you could post them. Or maybe the dealer would take pictures anyway? I'd appreciate seeing them. Best of luck with it.

I'll need a new diff, half shaft, rear subframe, and fuel tank. So far.

I literally had the same type of failure 2 years ago. Road was a bit wet, I was about to make a u-turn, blimped the throttle a bit and leg go of the clutch, and bam... heard bolts flying across the streets.

Dang!! I hope it all works out for you. While buying back the car sounds like they're doing the right thing, if it happened to me I'd be carless and it took me months to find the CPO I ended up with so I'd be in that state quite a while. I sure hope that they help mitigate similar challenges for you. Good luck! |

To be honest this will work out very well for you although an inconvenience.
You will get back every dollar you put into that car including down payment and all payments. With the winter here and the market very very soft on M5's you should no doubt be able to find a steal on a 15 or even 16. Good luck and hope it all works out for the best.

Wow that is smart to grab a short-term lease takeover and then you're set! And what momos750 said makes a lot of sense. With the winter weather the ones that are sitting in showrooms will continue to sit and you can use that to your advantage. Looking forward to the pictures of the next one |

Glad you got it resolved, and impressive for BMW to do the right thing. Good luck with your next beast!

Sorry to hear that the diff broke but good to know they will buy your car back. That's great news. Hope nobody else has a broken diff anymore

Can you post up the details or letter BMW sent you in regards to the buy back?
I'm sure this is not a one time occurrence for these cars. It would help the community, in case someone else suffers catastrophic failure like this and BMW denies the claim. Thank you.

that is the risk when you buy used.... no matter CPO or not.
CPO is over-rated regardless. Some people just find that out the hard way, by paying the premium. |

Well, I'd say in this case it proved its worth. Would the buyback have happened if he showed up in a used car w/ a non BMW warranty? |
