Buying a CPO

I live in MI and a couple years ago bought a CPO site unseen from a dealer in TN. For me, I was confident that any issues not disclosed with a CPO, would be covered by any BMW dealer. In fact, a couple small issues with discolored trim, my local dealer fixed. Would always prefer to get a car locally, but this deal was amazing, so I went for it.

Hello,
We are looking to purchase a 2017 X5 CPO with 33k miles for 38k. We've been shopping around and think this is a good opportunity but the dealer isn't providing a CPO inspection checklist. They are stating that they have a machine that runs the inspection and there is no report output - which I think is BS. Has anyone experienced this, is the dealer obligated to share report under sale? I don't feel comfortable buying a CPO when the dealer can't produce a report.

I just purchased my CPO with 31k miles and it came with a full 3 page report initialed and signed by several people. I even had to sign off on the sheet. Lots of detailed information and a few pages where they just check everything in a row.

Thank you, I'm gonna push for the CPO report or walk. I'm hearing from other dealers that the report is standard practice.

yes. I got mine when I purchased my '17 2 weeks back. Since mine was a lease turn in and the dealer I bought from did the original lease and all maintenance getting a complete report was quite easy

FWIW, I had my first CPO experience this week and it was a good one. Seals and gasket leak on the rear differential, fixed same day by BMW of Alexandria. Got fresh fluid as part of the repair. And they didn't even charge me $50, which I thought was the CPO visit charge.

I recently bought a 2017 CPO X5 35d in mid July and today we noticed a few paint chips on one of the wheels. The back right passenger wheel. Would this be covered under the warranty or CPO? We also have the Express 5 insurance which covers tires and wheels. I'm not even sure how this paint chip even happened. I have attached a picture of the wheel
