It’s a lease, but I agree. There should be some concessions made here. I’m waiting to see what my “fix” is before going down the escalation route.

I had my engine replaced on my F80 after about a year, never had a problem after that.

That's better but I'd still ask for as it totally tarnishes your opportunity to purchase at lease end if so desired...to keep or cash in on equity, etc.

Today's am update:
TSE submitted photos of the bearing on Friday. (Not sure who these photos get sent to, but assume its higher ups at BMW M engineering). The TSE has been advised that they now need to pull the oil pump and check the crankshaft and submit additional pictures. My SA says this is the most up to date info he has. I can't even imagine what my car looks like right now. |

Today's afternoon update:
TSE confirms engine replacement needed. Here we go. For those of you who are in (or may be in) my situation, I'd suggest you contact your SAs asap. (Yes, I am serious). |

Thats good right? Wouldn't a whole new engine be better than one thats been taken apart? I guess the only downside is the wait.

You should contact bmw corporate. No way you should be paying the car while you wait for an engine. |

Man...I'm so sorry to hear that. Makes me afraid to take mine in. You definitely should not have to pay monthly while the vehicle is down. Are you going to reach out to BMW USA? They should hold payments and extend lease terms if the vehicle is down for 1mo or more. I'm calling my SA now to consult. Thanks for the continued updates. We've all been waiting to get to this point. However, I would rather a complete swap v teardown with crank out and reassembly though. I heard the motors drop out fairly easy. Fricking nightmare. I hope they make it right.

I would think your case is pretty high priority...maybe an engine is moving for you already!
