Also, if you are interested in an extended warranty talk with you local dealership representative about it. I bought my extended warranty from BMW and it was expensive but it was the best deal out of anybody and I got the Platinum coverage.

I asked them last week about the extended warranty and waiting on a quote. How much did you pay for your warranty? |

Personnally as there is metal in the oil I would get the engine out, drop the sump and rocker covers and do a full visual inspection - you may not need a full strip down - you can use a bore scope for the top of the cylinders and pistions (unlikely to cause this issue any way) |

ill drive it for a 100-200 miles and drop the pan even the upper sump housing ( upper oil pan) and see how it looks like, and send out the sample, if it looks like the rod bearings i can just swap them out from bottom. I read on rheingold i need to go with new set of rod studs and shells ofcorse. Btw i did a full warm up today and did listen to my engine in side a warehouse between 2800-3100 rpm. it sound just like rod noise. but if any one of you guys would do a recording for me i would really be happy. that will make it easy to verify my problem. i did the recording with an iphone in frond of kidneys. also when the na m3/m5 guys do rod bearing do they replace the crankshaft?
