RE: Engines Falling fr/ Sky

All,
 
Just want to add my '02 cents worth and say that a lot of the discussion about 
the problems of the M60 series aluminum V8 sounds like "sky is falling" 
alarmism to me.
 
If your engine got the DME and thermostat mod early in its life, why _assume_ 
that those updates are not going to be effective?  IMO, if the engine 
develops problems later, even after the warranty expires, BMW will be 
obligated to provide some sort of compensation.  This will be especially true 
when you consider how long the iron block engines last with reasonable care.
 
Don't lose sleep over something that hasn't happened yet.
 
 Regards,
 Jerry
