I was looking for information about extended warranties, and whether they are available from MINI USA, as well as other vendors.

I did a search for the terms "extended warranty ".

In the search results, I found this thread entitled "Are your Extended Warranties Voided By Modifications to the Car", which is supposedly in the "MINI Extended Warranty Discussion" forum.

But when I click directly to the "MINI Extended Warranty Discussion" forum, the thread doesn't show up. There are only 6 threads (5 sticky threads put up by the forum sponsor and one other thread. The threads I see in that forum are:

Sticky: Mini Manufacturer Warranty by Jeff@WarrantyDirect.com
Sticky: Extended Auto Warranty Explained - Article by Jeff@WarrantyDirect.com
Sticky: Glossary by Jeff@WarrantyDirect.com
Sticky: Extended Warranty Myths by Jeff@WarrantyDirect.com
Sticky: Extended Warranty 101 by Jeff@WarrantyDirect.com
Warranty on JCW equipment by dgszweda1


I'm really curious about this, since in one of the threads someone mentioned that MINI sells an extended warranty that will cover JCW kits (where the WarrantyDirect warranty will not cover them).

Am I mis-using the search button? Why are there threads in the forum that show up in the search but aren't present when I browse the forum? Have I misconfigured my view of the forum, somehow?

And, most importantly to me, I suppose: Is there a thread that has information about the MINI extended warranty (if such a thing is available) that I am somehow missing due to my inability to navigate the forums?

Thanks for any help!

 

When browsing the forums some are set so that the default display does not include posts prior to a certain date. This is likely why they show up in search and not when browsing.

As for your warranty question I have a couple of suggestions:

1) Post something in the Beneath the Bonnet forum

-or -

2) Post something to the Classic MINI forum as Julie or Mike can likely address your question

- or -

3) Post something in the Warranty Discussion forum

Hopefully a member in one of these forums will be able to answer your question.

Thanks! Changing my default view dates brought up the threads.
