You are in the BMW X3 & X5 Forum. Your Hosts are steve_ & tidester
My wife's '06 X3 billows ominous white smoke upon startup and idles roughly. This occurred for the first time last night from a vehicle that hasn't given us any real trouble before. I'm somewhat concerned about the welfare of my bank account since naturally this has occurred while her vehicle is out of warrantee (we extended with maintenance only). Anyone with thoughts on what the trouble could be before we head to the dealership on Monday will be greatly appreciated.

We are deciding whether or not we should purchase a vehicle extended warranty for the Used '06 x3 that we just purchased or to just set some money aside in a separate account for potential/future repairs. Any suggestions? If warranty, do you have any specific companies you can recommend?

| The dealer just confirmed that the CVV on my wife's X6 needs to be replaced. Fortunately for us this is the third vehicle we've purchased from them (BMW of Orland Park [IL]) and they have agreed to goodwill the work at no charge. THAT was great news! Thanks for the input. | |
