With the equivalent of only 58,160 miles an engine problem that serious should be handled by BMW regardless of the age of your car.

Keep us posted.
ONLY with this many miles, this is scary. Are you a hard driver of the car? what else could have caused this????

I respectufully disagree. There are plenty of independent BMW shops that can do the job. This could save him several hundred dollars, if the car is out of warranty.

You might want to check the BMW CCA web site and look for the independent shops list.
What I meant was that BMW should pick up the tab on this failure.

I have to admit I did drive the car hard about a week prior, but I always stayed below redline and I only have about 4,000 miles on the oil.
