Yea, those reasons and that quite a number now have had their bearings replaced.
When I bought my M3 3 1/2 yrs ago (and for some time after) almost no M3s were advertised as having their rod bearings done, now I think it's got to be approaching half of them do (although I haven't actually counted them, hmm, maybe I should make that my next stats project ).

1- car was having issues with successive misfires, not fully adressed even replacing the coil, because the issue repeated moments before full sending on autobahn. 2- ESS display was blurred by them for some intriguing reason, it could have previewed that something was about to happen, and there is no way to preview something bad happening to a rod bearing 3- engine was still running after the event 4- alu debris were found in the oil filter, guess it wouldn't be the case if it was bearings related? I would bet more on air-fuel mixture issues followed by pre-detonation. |

I'm going to read up on that one now. [edit] Ruebsteak added to list.
Btw, with my recent job move to BMW, I was told today by a work college about a 2013 year M3 which threw it's rod big style, he showed me the pictures of the block with massive holes in it! He's agreed to share the photos with me (ones without VIN or the reg anyway, which is fair enough), we just didn't have time today. So 2 postings in a row of LCI engine failures! So all I have atm are a few details, as mentioned it's a 2013 model, had done about 40k miles, the engine blew during the 1st week of Covid lockdown here in the UK, so March 2020 IIRC. As I understand it, the guy hadn't long bought it, but by a massive stroke of luck for him the previous owner had bought extended warrantee for the car, and it had 1 week left when the engine blew!! How lucky was that!? lol This car was repaired at a BMW dealer in Southampton (my college's former work place). I will add this case when I (hopefully) get the photos, I need to check that it hasn't been submitted here 1st, but I doubt it.

Country names added to my rod bearing failed lists.

I'm just trying to compile stats in my list of country with each report. Btw, got any more to add?

Added in a several old cases missed (MPoweredAuto, O4RC51, filinm3, regular guy, clem, 1fastdoc, rawdenim, Rahstar, Sid3waze, catpat8000, mchm3 & ZEEM3R) from the original list, got the extra names from the list from SeniorFunkyPants list in this thread - https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=935368 and a few from a poll he did.
Also a few from slightly updated SFP list by Bert (attached in my list post, see sig link 'blown engines').

Just thought some people might be interested to know that I've started a registry of failed S65 engines over at m3cutters (mainly a UK/Ire forum), I found 20 odd cases there which hadn't been listed anywhere (AFAIK). See this thread - https://forums.m3cutters.co.uk/threa...gistry.267063/
I guess I should add them to the list here too [edit. Which will be another 24 added to the list, oh and Gagerbag from this thread was missed, now also added], seeing as it's more of an international list here.

Added a missed old case from tuxblackedo (funnily enough his thread was linked in the op, but it wasn't in the blown engine list).
Also moved 6 from the uncertain list to the bearing lists, I created a new 'likely mains failure list' for those with seized engines, metal in oil & no temperature warnings (Brooklyn Mark's, M3NST3R, LoonR1, ifly747 and CrusherM3 cases). Possibly more to be moved. (Note to self, done up to no15 of uncertain list)

1st video I couldn't hear anything of note.
2nd video, I don't think I could hear any knocking, but it perhaps sounded like the exhaust manifold was blowing? But I'm not sure if that's the sound you are referring to. Anyway, really you need to take it to a garage to get it diagnosed properly.

I'm not sure if the knocking noise I hear the 40s mark is rod bearing knock. Also try cycling the Air Conditioning compressor on and off (with A/C re-circulation turned on too) and see if that effects the knock. The forum has seen cases of belt pulleys causing whine and knock. So be aware many things on an S65 can cause noise. Even the valve train if the engine oil viscosity is not 10W60.

Okay. So all of those are very good signs and data. How about the engine oil level, and the A/C compressor bearing (cycle it on and off with recirculation on), how about the condition of the engine mounts, or the belt tensioner pulleys? Let us know. Good luck.

Moved from the uncertain list to the bearing lists (JYTSky, PerfM5, avusm3).
Also added in missed old reports in 2016 from bsb, and NotoriousART who posted in this thread (failure occurred in 2013). (note to self, rechecked up to 27 in uncertain list).
