Could be right, could be wrong. Thanks for the response. All I know is that they wear down and the job is way easier than shops make it out to be. |

For example, I have 200k kms on my car and I have never replaced it. And trust me, I drive my car hard (a lot of movement of the TA gears) yet not issues... I'm not saying they won't go bad, it's probably a matter of time but it's not an issue in my opinion.

In any case, I had started to hear a faint "rubbing/ticking" sound when cruising between 2,000-3,000 RPM and I am certainly glad I had it checked out before the engine blew up.

No it doesn't work like that, the engine mounts are just there to isolate the engine vibrations from the car/cabin, that is why going with race or solid mounts cause increase NVH.

This might be the highest mileage one so far. Great color combo but I can't jump on that mileage |

Hi Everyone
New to the forums , just purchased a 2008 bmw convertible supercharged ESS stage 1 , 6 speed with approx 185 000km (not miles) . The supercharger was installed at about 145 000km. The car had its actuators replaced, but the connecting rod bearings have never been changed !! Ive listened carefully to the engine and i dont hear anything unusual , i will be sending a oil lab test soon. Just wondering if anyone has heard of supercharged M3 2008 that has never had its rod bearings changed with such high mileage . Do you guys think i should change it ? Thank you |

Just purchased 08 e92 131k 1 owner pristine condition. No bearings clutch or mounts done yet. Drove home from sellers yesterday car was a absolute beast. Evo exhaust ess tune. Only thing I didn’t like was every fucking Mercedes Porsche and other pretenders wanting to race on the highway. I have no self control.

Canadian Trip
Purchased a 2008 e93, 6 speed manual in December with 87k on her. Just completed a 1300 mile venture into Canada. From Philly into the 1000 Islands region and west to Kingston Ontario. From Kingston, west along the Lake to Toronto and then East to Ridgeway Ontario on Lake Erie (across from Buffalo). From there back to Philly. Car drove like a dream, no issues and had a smile on my face the whole time. 80% of he trip with the top down. Best purchase I have made in a long, long time. Here is a picture at Sackets Harbor, NY on Lake Ontario. Enjoying a high mileage M!!!
