I'm 18 mths in a 48 mth lease (24,000 km / yr). I wonder if a 3rd party warranty would cover something like this.
I am sorry to hear that.

Extended Warranty is nice because mechanical breakdown like the engine blowing up is covered.

I inquired about the trade-in and it was $9,000 difference if I sell it privately versus trade-in.
We'll see how things go but everyone is telling me that I should hold on to it and get the extended warranty when it's time. That engine will only have 30,000 km on it. I'd like to get a handle on what the extended warranty costs are for the M235.
