Clearly you don't know what you are talking about.
Plus, very few SCH lead to full engine replacement and most just need a timing repair which is MUCH cheaper.
Also, I had 2 e46s and both had failed VANOS early in life. One at 15k miles and the other at 26k miles. Thank god I was stock so warranty covered it because that repair is not cheap.
I think you are looking at the past with rose colored glasses.
I guess people just don't realize that manufacturers are not in the business of building cars you can mod to all hell and then pay for your failed engine because of such mods. In fact, I don't know of any business that does that. Crazy how business works.
For the stock failures, that sucks, but the error rate is likely no higher than any past M car. |
Parts...what about labor?
People are getting 30k bills for anew engine installed.
