Too bad there isn't a savvy lawyer whom owns an M3 and I willing to pursue a class action lawsuit. Everytime I read these threads, its mind boggling that BMW has not done anything about it.

Here is one from Bimmerforums. Last post mentions having engine rebuilt at 64k, oddly followed by failure at 71k. You would think the earlier rebuild would have replaced main and rod bearings. Probably follow up for more information is needed.

Even with new rod bearings, that kind of behavior is so abusive to the engine that it would have probably failed anyway. Holding near redline for that long while stationary is going to skyrocket fluid and component temperatures far beyond what it would see even in a track environment.

You'd be surprised how much RTV is used on S65s and S85s by "professional" engine builders. (self proclaimed anyways).

Even that metal injection tool doesn't even work successfully, the proper way is to get the Nordson tool and pressurize the Loctite.
