MY E92 M3 GETS ITS ROD BEARINGS REPLACED AT SSR PERFORMANCE! ALMOST LOST MY MOTOR AT 40K MILES!

[@ItzEmmaunelworld_3]

sheeeeesh i love how you you say "welcome back" twice with a enthusiastic tone.

[@ItzEmmaunelworld_3]

let's get it another banger content. thank God you didn't nearly lose your motor sheeeeeeeesh would be a pain on the butt. shout to SSR performance for hooking up with new Rod bearings let's get it!!!!

[@bimmerflex5526]

Awesome road trip and excellent content again Nour. Your M3 will give you such satisfaction and vast peace of mind once you’ve carried out this task. Worth doing obviously, but low mileage for the wear & tear! U.K. praises you. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@sarianassar1433]

Are you going to change the valve cover gaskets and springs too?

[@robertpurvis6106]

Hello. Nour. This is a long shot asking you this question to you. I had my 135i worked on at the Orange location back in May this year. I had a good experience and wanted to get some more work done. It seems only the auto body shows up now on Google maps. I tried their phone number all day yesterday and nobody picked up. Noticed they had a new location in Irvine. Drove down to talk to someone and the bay doors were shut. Pushed the bell at the counter and nobody came out to lobby. Place looked super nice to the point it seemed out of my pay grade. Like super car status. Any ideas what is going on? Change of ownership maybe?

[@nd7elpatron777]

Is this a problem on the n54 or also on a n55?

In the name of the wee man. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Lucky there Nour that’s been tagged for only 40k miles. Great video again. 👍🏻

That M3 will be very nice to drive after work is carried out. The owner of SSR is quite enthusiastic.

What’s the best rod bearings to get

[@ElmoPlaysStuffHD]

Man if you end up selling this M3 towards getting an R8 pls overcharge the guy who buys it, you deserve to as you take very good care of your cars. Should have sold the 7 series for way more, that car was brought back to life

[@erikgarcia1589]

Yea LCI bearings just have different material (copper). It mainly has to do with clearance issues, a oil analysis won’t do anything if you didn’t do it since the car was brand new. Better to pay for rod bearings than a whole motor lol.

[@johnnychimpo7539]

An oil analysis will tell you if there is bearing material in the oil

[@erikgarcia1589]

@@johnnychimpo7539 LCI is aluminum so won’t show anything in the report. Pre LCI is copper and will show up but i did them regardless because of stories on the forums.

[@reshadstv5419]

Great video Nour

[@soopermarkus]

Making the rod bearings harder, and harder to detect wear through oil analysis does not make them “improved”. I honestly don’t know why they make the tolerances so tight on the S motors. My neighbor had to change rod bearings in two E46 M3s and swap an entire engine into an E36 due to a spun bearing. A lot of noise is made about the S65 motors rod bearings, but they definitely aren’t the only engines with tolerance issues.

hi nour. i think most of the fans would agree to this. its time for a M2 rebuild or a M2 series conversion the hummadi fam could agree M2 or e30 m3 but defiantly a bmw m2

I love BMWs and want one really bad but this is why I don’t have one yet because I want to be able to maintain the car properly and right now I just couldn’t afford this kind of maintenance but some day for sure

[@The_North0]

The rod bearing is not actually that bad. You could put 50,000 more miles maybe alot more if you allows the engine to wam up properly and change oil every 5-8,000 miles. Mine e60 M5 has 151,000 miles on the original rod bearing.

[@soopermarkus]

It’s been reported that oil analysis on the LCI bearings doesn’t help much because the aluminum layer gets obscured with normal aluminum presence in the oil. There is an layer of copper under the aluminum and tin that can be detected. Mine didn’t get changed out until 88k and since they were preLCI the copper was showing. Good peace of mind because I know the previous owner tracked the car. I don’t, and I always wait until the oil is up to temp before driving hard. Now that people know the proper care and feeding of this engine, they can go longer on stock bearings. I do get why some would want to just do the service to settle their doubts. Especially not knowing service history and driving habits of previous owners.
