So frustrating, I didn't think this car would have the rod bearing issues like my E46M3. Also I have been doing oil samples on the X5m.
What's the go to bearing replacement on these S55s?

Did you change the oil and check again?
Did you say you heard knocking sound? |
No ticking or knocking sound. I filled it back up with fresh oil and filter, but will only be starting it to put it on and off the trailer when I take it to the shop next week.
Plan is to have them pull the pan and see what the bearings and rods look like and go from there. I have all the colors of the OE rod bearings ordered.
I don't want to risk driving it around and ruining the crank or block. This car is will be hitting the track for 20-30 sessions and i don't want to risk it.
