I would challenge this opinion. Aside from S65's needing their bearings replaced (like most other S motors), the engine is quite robust and reliable, rarely "breaking down" as the result of a mechanical failure. We see far more reliability issues with other engine platforms. Break downs are more often electrical related anyway so calling the S65 itself unreliable isn't really a fair statement IMO. Glad you got it done though. Carry on.
