Ufortunately it just wasn't bad enough to meet the requirements for a proactive replacement and I was only a couple of months from exceeding the extended coverage.
I would have seriously considered an M240 as a replacement, but the G42 was not yet available when I bought my new car.

My E84 X1 was also my first BMW, I've since moved on to the F48 X1 as it is very practical and it's just 2 of us and a dog. It's a 20d and I'm really glad I made the change considering the current fuel prices.
