What do you get for more than the 4 years maintenance? The standard package gets me oil / brake fluid (dont know what else)

It should represent the extra maintenance stuff not included in the standard maintenance package. This would include, wipers, some belt replacements (not sure which ones) and the most important one where you get your money back is the brakes! One time job pays for it in itself, if you push your car and squeeze in a 2nd brake job in the 3 years you are really ahead

If you factor in a least one brake job, one time wiper replacement if not 2 over 3 years as for the belts not quite sure as I said, it's worthwile IMO.

Later,

Not sure but I doubt anyone will get past the 40-50K mark.

It all depends on how you drive. 2-3 track days will have your brakes worn out.

I'm guessing they won't cover it though for track days

I suspect if they change them, you track it and you bring it back in 2 weeks or so with legitimitely used pads, they're going to suspect something.

In that case it would be considered as an investment !!

I wonder if the service manager would come up to you after your 3rd brake job and ask you a few questions? No sir I have no idea why these brakes just don't last !!!
