1) For $3200 I can get a 4 year/48k miles bumper to bumper warranty that covers everything from full power-train to A/C system, even down to the headlights and electronics. This will give me peace of mind knowing that not only the rod bearings, but the rest of the car is covered as well.
2) For roughly $2500 I can simply do the bearing service and call it a day - knowing that i will not have to deal with a blown engine any time soon.
Does anyone here have experience with an aftermarket warranty?
Thanks!

My aftermarket warranty has paid for itself less than a year into its 4 year term. You never know. I once went in for an oil change and came away with a $2400 charge for leaking mechatronics seal. cost me the $250 deductible. I also had a fuel sensor need replacement and the dealer wanted to replace the motor mounts as well. That was $1700. 2009 E92, 77000 miles. Bought through BMW dealer, although its third-party.
