Buying a Used 2022 BMW X5 – CPO vs. Non-CPO? Need Advice on Warranty & Inspections!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to buy a used 2022 BMW X5 and debating between CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) from BMW vs. non-CPO from other dealerships (e.g., Benz, Mitsubishi).

CPO ($49K-$51K)

✔ 1-year factory warranty left (+1-year unlimited mileage CPO warranty)

✔ Option to buy BMW’s Platinum Protection Plan

✔ Likely better maintenance history

Non-CPO ($43K-$44K)

✔ Cheaper, but no CPO benefits

❌ Warranty? Only remaining factory coverage

❌ Riskier—unknown maintenance history

Concerns:

1.  Trusting non-CPO cars – How do I verify reliability?

2.  PPIs – How do I avoid paying $1,000+ for multiple inspections?

3.  Extended Warranty – Can I get BMW’s or rely on third-party? Any good options?

4.  Hidden issues? – Common problems to check (brakes, suspension, etc.)?

Any advice from those who’ve bought a used X5? Appreciate the help!
