Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

Nice detective work getting in touch with him. Hopefully he can get his engine sorted and the true cause of the problem will be found.

I would like to hear from someone who had bearing failure first hand..........Do you redline your car frequently? Do you think you should redline your car frequently and expect no issues? The reason I ask is since I picked up my E92 M3 18 months ago I have put around 65,000 miles on her. I drive a lot! She has 89,000 now. It'll have over 120 by Christmas. I did my Rod bearings because of that tick everyone has and it started to get ridiculously louder and louder. I've posted before and after videos from my experience here on this site. When I did my bearings at around or before 30,000 the wear pattern was a little deeper than I expected on them admittedly but I don't know how the 1st owner drove. In any case I think if a car cannot go past 100,000 miles without major failure it's 1 of 2 reasons.
1-The car was manufactured poorly. 2-You beat the shit out of your car and are unrealistic with your expectations. I've had MANY cars and trucks make it past 600,000 miles with no issues. To hear everyone worried about rod bearings to this extreme makes me wonder what y'all are doing to your M3's and how you treat them. I really don't think the S65 is the fragile motor of glass y'all make it out to be. Words don't mean shit here.....someone needs to post data from the ODB on a failed car and provide at least a few months of driving history. Betcha you'll find "money shifts" and "lingering redline action" on these cars history. Track grenades don't count either. There is a reason a proper race vehicle is commonly out of most people reach financially. And for that matter a race vehicle is serviced on a much more aggressive and frequent schedule. I really don't believe a car just grenades shifting from 1st to 2nd at 3,000 rpm under normal driving. No way!
