In my experience ppl equate odometer reading to engine wear. Not much else. If you have proper paperwork I guess it doesn't matter much.
Yea i mean i am going through the dealership. So paperwork and receipts and stuff shouldnt really be a problem

A warranty replacement part assumes the warranty of the part it replaced. So, if you had a 12,000 warranty and the motor gets replaced at 11,000 miles, that new motor only has 1,000 miles of warranty on it.

Are you sure, I thought a warrantied part was backed for one year?

A new motor should carry its own warranty unrelated to the warranty on the car as you implied

Interesting to see that it was an oil pump.
Ive seen a fair bit of N55 engines blow here at the dealer.. Most are poor maint or chain issues...And on the XDrive vehicles Front driveshafts blow apart and cause a ton of damage - can either take out an engine or a transmission depending which end blows up.

Funny enough.. 2 Weeks ago i did a PDI on a brand new M4... walked outside started the car up...walked back into the shop to put some paper work away....walked back out..car was no longer running
and would not turn over... Found out a timing chain had jumped a tooth - bmw sent us a brand new engine.

Haven't seen enough come through with high enough mileage to even worry yet.
From a technician stand point...that Engine is going to suck lol - Mainly because it's based off the diesel engines...and well BMW Diesel engines are virtually indestructible.
From a consumer/customer stand point - that engine is going to be extremely good in just about every aspect Power/emissions/fuel consumption etc.
Will be interesting to see as time goes on.

UPDATE!!: so i just got the car back and everything is looking and sounding great, so i was reading the diagnostic report thing, and it says that the cause was " the crankshaft bearings came apart"

so long story short i got the car back and am breaking it in, and very eager to get back to modding it soon

Actually, when breaking in a new engine it is ill advised to limp it around at low RPM.

You should vary RPM and pedal input quite frequently.

There should be information in your manual of the proper break in procedure.

Most say something similar to what I said above.

Honestly, I bought my BMW with 1.3 miles and by mile 15 I put it to the floor and all the way to red line. Car didn't skip a beat.

However, since cars off the assembly line go through tests before leaving the factory, they are pretty much broken in anyway.

An engine off the crate does need some time to seat the rings and get some heat cycles in the engine.

Taking it easy and under 3000 wouldn't be my recommendation but flogging it out the gate wouldn't be it either in this case.

Meet somewhere in the middle for the first 100 or so miles. 1200 miles would be an excessive an unnecessary break in time. That motor by mile 100 has gone 10's of thousands of revolutions already.

Well if his oil pump failed then his bearing could have failed as a result.

Just like e92 m3 without the oil pump failure

Found out my m240i has a minor oil leak. Appointment is set for January 4th. Little disappointing since the car only had 2400ish miles when I noticed the oil leak. Hoping it's nothing big like a loose bolt on the turbo return line or something. I still have high hopes for the b58 motor. I hope you're right about it being indestructible.

Those intakes just throw codes sometimes... mine never did but I'm thinking my JB4 was suppressing the code like it does for the downpipe. I've seen a few threads on here where it's been mentioned
