I've got a F82 buddy with a custom 93 tune and XHP DCT who drags with me. He just snapped one OEM.
My F80 MT6 held up pretty good (retired). I launched at 4K just like you. Tires were 325 R888Rs so I stuck pretty good. I didn't do burnouts with that setup, just the 4K quick drop (not a dump). My new F82 DCT will get DSS axles when the built motor and Dodson goes in.

The first time I broke it I was on a Bootmod3 stage 2 OTS tune (maybe 500whp?) The rest were on full E85 so close to 600whp. So I guess it varies from car to car. Also mine is a vert so not sure if that plays a role here |

I don't know bmw warranty but for my Audi, it was 1 year after the repair even it was out of warranty as long as it was the exact same part. |

Think it may have anything to do with the car being a convertible? |

I would think the added weight might have a more adverse effect on the axle. Considering I was doing some sliding with the top down on not-so-great roads I'm fairly certain that wheel hop contributed greatly to the snapping from the previous two incidents. |
