In the mean-time, I didn't have as much data back when I originally speculated on the DCT being a possible cause of this crank hub failure, it was just pure speculation as I was trying to understand what was causing this issue. I, unlike some people, try not to just throw everything that goes through my head out into the Internet. I have been perplexed by this situation and have gone back and forth, like many of us, on what was causing this, how widespread the issue is and how to fix it. Edit: it appears you did speculate on the possibility of engine torque having nothing to do with this issue just before I did. However, I never saw your post previously to this. Further clarification on my point in that thread was that the S55 was considered a high-performance engine (high torque/power) that will be beat on and was designed to be raced and this warranted a keyed crank hub for this reason and that less high-performance engines (less torque/power) featured keyed crank hubs. I was, at no time, meaning that this issue had anything to do with torque/power levels themselves. Also keep in mind, we didn't have nearly the info that we now have on this topic. There has been a lot of back-and-forth from all of the knowledgable posters on this topic, including yourself. Last edited by CaryTheLabelGuy; 02-15-2016 at 08:23 PM.. |

I'm guessing the DCT isn't the same.... It's also a different motor all together where as the S55 is based off the N54/N55.

Well if it's a problem then I'm just lucky I guess because I've had mine for 17 months and I hard kick-down DCT shift that bitch all the fucking time. But I'll update the thread if she blows.

If I had a DCT I would stick a furniture pad by the kick down button to prevent the gas pedal from activating it , I did this on a old 335i I had cause I despised that feature.

For the record, when my car had it's failure, I was doing a data log, 2nd gear to 4th gear run, shifting (DCT) around 6300 rpm ish. Cars Mods: JB4, Map 8, running meth additive of 30. E85 mixed (3 gallons). After shifting into 4th I let off throttle and received and engine malfunction, game over. I only recently learned that if I down shift the car (example 7th), grab the left paddle and hold it while flooring it and hitting the kick-down, car will drop down to the lowest acceptable gear(Manual shifting mode). I never did this while tuned. I would click down my downshifts. |

I've been JB4/DPs for a few thousand miles now, and she runs pretty strong.

Wouldn't the M5 guys be seeing this a bit then, if it was a function of torque and the DCT?

I personally don't know enough about the S63 to say how it's crank hub design is but it may not be comparable at all. |

Here is a graphic of the S85's crank showing the gears as integral to the crank: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=11_3692 Quote:
The S63 in the F10 M5 uses a woodruff key to lock in the timing sprocket to the crankshaft (see item 3). http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=11_5029

I was being facetious, and poking fun at the E92 crowd. The little wink eye smiley at the end was the tip-off. Sorry if my humor/sarcasm wasn't clearer.

Dackelone how do you feel about a sticky on this? Seems like some good important discussion going on here.
