Geez, these BMW owners are testy!
I don't blame you. I would be too. I've got GM V8's in the driveway with 400k miles on them and no engine problems, no smoke, no leaks, work every day! Rod bearings are something we change when we want to, not because we have to.
Since you mentioned it, my lowly Chrysler only has around 50 dragstrip passes, a dozen or so road course track days, and tons of whippin' and a beatin' almost every weekend. 5 sets of tires! Nary a missed beat. Not too bad for a 180 mph 4 door luxury car.
Interesting, eh? No trans issues either. I had three BMW's and the only part that did NOT fail was the trans! The Chrysler easily tops all 3 for reliability and durability.
Psst, you might want to ask how much Government money BMW took to build their plant here in the ole USA. It was a ton. And they did NOT pay it back like Chrysler did. Betcha missed that one, too. The least they could have done was send you a few bearings and a gasket set!
