I get that m3post doesn't represent all 25,000 USA M3 owners.
Who knows how many of the 181,000 registered m3post members own or have owned an E9x M3. But you have to admit <10 owner recorded engine failures due to bearings is hardly an epidemic.
It happens all the time - if enough people repeat something then soon its taken as fact regardless of the truth.
