Spun Crank Hub with BM3
Hi,
I spun my crank hub last night. I was wondering if anyone that has run BM3 has been able to successfully warranty it. Im going to put it back to stock shortly. Just need to figure out if I can get away with flashing it back to stock or if I would need to get new ecu? Or maybe there is another alternative.. If anyone has similar stories feel free to share. Need as much info as I can get. |

Oh I was def aware. But there are people who have done this and got away with it thru warranty. Might as well give it my best shot.

Just my .02 but why do some people expect anyone but themselves to pay the price for a risk that they took with a lucid mind? When BMW covers this "as a courtesy" or because you commit fraud, then the rest of us pay the price later. I get it, spread out over many cars, it doesn't amount to much, but nonetheless, it gets passed to the next consumer.
Values systems in general are lacking. I hope the dealer tells you to go f yourself. |

I appreciate the feedback regardless of the response. I am willing to pay for it out of pocket, but like everyone else in here, we would all try to get away with it thru warranty if possible. |

I know you're going to do what you want, but please don't state that "everyone" would try to commit fraud. They wouldn't. |

You have a point, I shouldn't of been so vague. And I don't much see it as fraud as this is a manufactures defect that happens even to stock cars that BMW will not claim responsibility for. Just my opinion. Again appreciate all feedback, even the negativity. |

In my practice I get asked everyday to commit insurance fraud. Some patients say that their previous dentist just billed their insurance and took what the insurance company paid. That is 100% fraud, and if a doctor is willing to rip off the insurance company, how good is the treatment that they are providing. I have fired staff for telling a patient that we can do that kind of billing.

And I get that the justification is that the car would've broke perhaps even if you didn't mod. And, I'm not being negative. I'm being truthful. |

I was not planning on keeping the car past spring. Hence I did not reinforce it. Lesson learned. |

How did it happened? Were you cruising when it happened? Or the day after a spirited drive? Would you sharing?
