im gettin the gmpp major guard and im gettin it for 1450$... the caddy dealer wanted 2250$ for it!! pays to no people at other dealers i guess... thats a 5 year 50k extended....

i figure i blow 1 rear end and that extended warranty will pay for itself.... plus what else do i have to blow money on?? lmao

GMPP MAJOR GUARD is the best you can get. I agree it will most likely pay for itself.

I'm surprised a T-56 would go out with only 11,000 miles.

I just bought my 2004 CTS-V. The warranty is up in March '09. How soon before the original warranty is up do you have to decide on the Major Guard warranty? Week before, day before, monthe before? Is it bumper to bumper or just powertrain? I do fear for the rear end expenses on this car...

I think that as long as you are under GM Factory warranty you can buy a GMPP. And its coverage is just about the same as GM's Factory warranty. Obviously it doesn't cover wear items like tires,brakes, etc and it doesn't cover maintenance items (filters, bulbs,spark plugs,etc).

T-56 Bad @ 11k miles????? That's kinda odd to me... T-56's are usually pretty durable....

i no it... the v t56's are supposed to be even stouter than the gto and f body ones.... mainly there was a internal vibration that led to a clunk... so it was cheaper to put a whole new on in that tear the old one apart diagnois it and try and fix a potentialy hurt tranny....

gmpp is electircal suspention steering powertrain all the big dollar crapp dont cover trim peices interior panles or fits... squeaks or rattles...
