I’ve Been researching like a mad man. Made like 100 different calls. Third party bmw specialists, bmw service advisors, bmw aftermarket mechanics, etc. this is my final thought and speculation. All third party mechanics stated unless there is a special tool, engine needs to come out for bearing replacement. However, most bmw service advisors/managers speculates it is a simple fix without the engine needing to come out. See the pattern? If engine out I am not going to purchase. Most of the mechanics were hinting, unless you really trust your master tech don’t buy because there is so many room for errors if engine is coming out. Bmw really fu** this one.
