Even if it’s 5 or 10, still pretty good. Look how prevalent issues are with previous M cars. Rod bearing on the E92 M3, E46 M3 had issues with vanos and sub frame cracking, E60 M5 you basically need 2 to keep one on the road at all times, etc.

Even other manufacturers have similar issue, The FA20 motor is subbies throw rods even when stock. My previous S2K ate timing chain tensioners and would need constant valve maintenance. So on and so forth.

And another thing to note issues are always blown out of proportion on the forum since everyone comes onto these things to complain.


Hmm weird ive never heard of the FA20 throwing rods, that's not good lol.
