I will be waiting for your response to prove me wrong. You want me to bring up my service docs again showing dealer saw damage to stock hub?
It is very rare if at all on a stock/not money shifted car.

You guys really think that modding them as extensively as you do pushing the envelope and probably past it that you are not going to run in to problems? Especially with how you use your car?

Of course shit is going to break.
I was FBO when it happened on stock hub. Pretty sure the majority is too with tune/downpipes.

Do you think this is what BMW envisioned when they designed the F8X?:

Austin Yellow M4 15' (704 whp / 672 lb/tq)
AWE Non-Res Exhaust | BMS Intake | AWE ColdFront | ER Downpipes | ER Chargepipes | JB4 Stage 3 | Custom SS Methanol | Swift Springs | TPG/DSS 1200hp Axles | Dodson Superstock DCT Clutch | PURE Stage 2 Hi-Flo

So? Is that how BMW designed it? Obviously not.

From what I read you also had a meth kit and are routinely drag racing the car. You are genuinely surprised you guys have found a part (or parts) that were pushed past its design limits?

Meth adds 20whp at most for the car and is designed as an fuel booster. Nothing more.

Uhm I thought this was a motorsport car? Isn't that what ///M means? Motorsport? Why in the world did they put launch control in the car?! If meth is such a problem, why does the GTS have water injection?

Let me ask you.

Are you a Mechanical Engineer that can prove without a doubt to ALL of us here that what's happening to you will happen to anyone else?

Are you also sure a S55 that's stock rated at 425 HP will be able to hit 700+ HP 680+ TQ safely WITHOUT any engine failure issues?

Are you kidding me? Just because it's a M doesn't mean it's infallible. What about the poll posted that said about the failure rates and the person who had 3 made up for 50% of the vote?

Shit fails, things break. Especially when you are adding extra things to a engine that doesn't designed to have them with it and push past it's limits.

I don't know why it keeps breaking down.

That does not prove a design flaw or a major problem area.

Okay so why did it happen to people who were stock and on the stock hub then? Why was it not an isolated incident? Waiting for your response.

lol 7 total break failures = to it will happen to everyone? Really?

Ok bro. Nice response. You still haven't proved anything. Until my SA, who happens to be on these very forums, tells me personally F8x are coming in with this problem, this will always be only you.

The more defensive you get w/o any proof other then "It happened to me while I was OEM" means very little to anyone who can think for themselves.

And also, very intelligent response believing I didn't read the thread. You haven't proven Boss's argument wrong yet.

Out of a 100 plus responses in the other thread with the poll there are 2 responses of stock cars failing. I realize this isn't completely representative of all F8X cars, but it is telling.

We don't know what there situation was or if they were money shifted. Which, usually ends up being the issue on a stock car. The problem lies with the heavily modded cars it appears.

FWIW, I was at a tech session at my local dealer recently. I asked one of the shop foreman who has been around BMW for a long time about this possible issue. He gave a confused "huh" look and had no idea about it.

I never said it will happen to everyone. How did you buy this M4 if you don't have any reading comprehension? I said the problem is real. I never said it will happen to everyone.

And for the record, don't forget that the reported ones that have broken share similar production time frames. They were from late 2014 and two were from 11/14 togather.
