Can anyone advise if the warranty out lined gives enough coverage, I own a 2001 S600 with 55k. I was quoted $2600 for 3yrs or 36k. I'm not sure if it's giving me coverage all the importants parts. This is not a mb dealer warranty, the original warranty expired. Thanks

Only thing I can tell you is be very careful when buying a extended warranty, the company I sent over 2K to had a good track record but went bankrupt and I was left with nothing.
Good Luck.
