Default RTABs under warranty?

Can I safely assume that rear trailing arm bushes are covered by the standard (no excess) BMW warranty?

Hoping they aren't classified as a wear part...

They are covered unless BMW got fed up with honouring the common faults

If you have had them done under warranty,and your car is over 50k miles,i think you have been very lucky,as they are classed as wear and tear,bmw warranty would not do mine under warranty,nor the front wishbone bushes on my stock m3 a couple of years ago.I guess if your under 50k miles then you should be ok.
