$25,000 + $20,000 deposit for the engine core exchange totalling $45,000.... Wonder if engine has to be running? Prolly cant exchange an engine that grenaded itself from the rod bearings...


I'll just wait for BMW to put out a TSB...
You will probably be waiting a long time........ The E60/61 M5, E63/64 M6 and E90/92/93 M3 are all out of production and the chances of a TSB are slim and none. The bearings are lasting long enough to get through the warranty period so I am quite sure this is why there has been no action from BMW thus far. This coupled with the fact that the cars with the S65/S85 engines in them generally see lower mileage than series models is not helping things. One can hope though!
