Thanks and yea lol I happened to notice that sign after my car had emptied its self of all oil, woops!
Tech didn't say anything regarding the different materials of old vs new bearings. All he said was that there is only one part number for these (702/703) bearings and I/we already know that thanks to this forum. He did say its BMW procedure to plastigauge the newly installed bearings to verify clearances are with in spec. Not sure what their protocol would be if they found that clearances are too tight once new bearings are installed.
