Dropping to 3/36 is a blatant statement that you cannot trust the quality as much as in the past. If they are cutting the warranty by 25% (not to mention dropping brakes and clutch - WTF????), what other corners are they cutting? I think this is going to hurt sales badly for BMW in the future. I can almost certainly say that I will not purchase another BMW in the future and I will switch to another brand. This is a HUGE disappointment. HUGE. HUUUUUUUGE!!
Maintenance change, not warranty change. Still an issue expecially for M owners, but not quite the same as reducing warranty coverage.
