my wife bananas! :D
tbh, with 85% life left in the tires, they probably wont give you new ones.
even the 65% pads and rotors are above their standards.

ahh...i thought 85% of total tire life translates to 15% tire life remaining. if the tires have 85% tire life left, i wont be complaining.

When I bought my car, I was shown the CPO process and the checks they did. From what I remember, brake pads under 50% are replaced. I got new tires with my car and a new service.

Sorry I meant that they did the service where they check the engine oil and do an alignment and some other things I don't quite remember.

When I picked up my 2009 C63 CPO, they had serviced the transmission oil (service "A" was just done 1,000 miles earlier), replaced from brake pads (rear pads were done when service "A" was done) and replaced the two rear tires (with 265/35 18"). Wiper inserts, and some roof moldings. The car has 48K miles on it now.. riding out my last couple of months of full factory warranty. They were asking $47K and I got them down to $41.7K.

Of course I then added the 2Yr/135K extended warranty (mileage is not a concern for me, but the 1Yr CPO was too short to feel comfortable.)

btw, got the 2 year extension for 4495$ and tire/wheel package for 1695$. does that sound fair enough?

Humm.... The 2Yr could have been negotiated down to around $3990, seems to be the going rate. $1695 for wheel coverage seems high but I didn't pursue it so I can't say if was higher or lower than what I was quoted.
