Does our warranty cover wear due to racing?
Just bought the M3 ~3months ago. Will be doing doing some road racing at an event next week. I'm new to the M but I'm assuming that more wear will be put on the brakes, etc... Does BMW warranty and provide the necessary service (brake pads, oil change, etc) as needed, whenever it's needed, even if that service comes up much sooner due to a race event?

Really depends on the dealer/service adviser. IMO

Agreed its not explicity covered..and if you going in for brakes oil etc at greater frequency they will probably flag it.
A friendly SA couldnt hurt.. |

It is technically not covered, it is stated in the owners manual. However, depending on your SA and dealership, they may help you out as a courtesy.

Just don't tell them that you need new parts cause you were racing the car.

I doubt they are going to give extra maintenances due to tracking. Like others have said DIY or just find a good indepentant shop.
