My M4 just got to 100k. I was dreading it, but now that it’s at 100k, I feel like it started a new life. And the car has 0 issues. Stock crankhub, Stage2.
@@JordanTheodoreYT Thanks…a lot more people than you think are on the stock hub - including Beemerfam (he’s done over 20k miles on a Stage 2 tune). It actually only affects a very low single digit amount of cars. What mostly triggers the CH failure is the sudden force of torque via kickdown or money shifting.
@@yg78t76t7I agree, lotta people don’t why the crank hub spins in the first place. If you drive in manual mode and shift down before flooring then you’ll be fine
Maintenance over mods is so real. As with BMW, I would always recommend reinforcing the shit out of your engine before even modding the slightest. Also, people overlook custom ecu remap all the time. Getting an off the shelve map is not really that good. Custom map is always the best, as you need data logging. Even a simple air intake will need a remap, let a lone a full catless dp and catback exhaust.
@@throttletribevn Yes! Absolutely! Im not gonna lie tho, I have never educated myself on custom maps and how they work, But definitely something good to look into! Thank you!
~Mahalo~ great video and great advise. I'm a firm believer as well maintenance over mods every time. BTW I like the Hawaiian Flag I rock the same flag on M3 in the rear windows
Both are solid cars tbh! But know they have a common ground, which is being a BMW and will have those same common issues across all bmws (mainly gasket leaks/early prevention of those).
@@MarchedYeti96 i came to the conclusion instead of buying the f80/m340i ina couple months imma wait two more years to buy a g80 feels like that is the smarter move dp n tune on those making 700 ez and i want the latest tech as well so thats the plan now and it doesnt have a crankhub issue like the f8x platforms
I had it for about a year I believe wasn’t my daily driver the coolant hoses were the turbo lines are went out that was about 1300 to replace my valve cover went out and I don’t really drive it hard just drive around I don’t know I’ve been having a bad experience lol
@@picogeeevlogs8766replaced my valve cover gasket last summer at 80k miles it was dripping onto my exhaust and smoking was coming inside the cabin, $900 later, then 2 months later a horrible. Whistle sound was coming from the engine bay, found out the valve cover was cracked, new cover 600 dollars and 600 labor this time., now at 90k I got more stuff happening lol
@@f82kalikiano yeah brother took it to the dealership and the total for the job was 11k with new motor mounts. Luckily the warranty is covering half so I’m not going to complain
@@f82kalikiano valve cover oil cooling housing it needed motor mounts a wheel alignment but they did tune the car up for free. The warranty covered $6800 and I had to pay the rest
Two things, 2015 m4 stage 2 full e85 tune 580whp, only got the crank bolt capture plate, no issues with the hub. Also warning about the Dinan coil packs last summer, with it gave me a misfire at full throttle above 4k RPM, switched back to OEM Delphi coils, problem was cured . I'm at 90k, dealer says oil filter housing, gasket, oil pan gasket, rear diff bushing, and rear right axle seal are sweating not full leaks yet... Quoting some crazy numbers almost $10k.
Over-all, I’d say 5-6k in a span of a year. I’d say I got lucky in the first few months cause I had a friend that did it and helped me for a really good price. Like the OFHG, water pump and thermostat parts and labor was under $1000 i think cause he had wholesale pricing on parts. And the valve cover, spark plugs and coils i did myself which saved me a lot of money.
the oil pan parts and labor was under $1000 too. The most i’ve spent was the control arms replacement and diff bushing cause I didnt have the proper tools so i had to take it to an indy shop that charged me 3k.

you are a brave man for being stock hub on stage 2!!! respect bro

@@yg78t76t7 yeah man! I was stage 2 on the stock hub too for a lil bit but just got scared off by everyone telling me I was crazy lol

@@yg78t76t7nope.. grip its killing hub..and gearbox remap too..but crank hub its a bad engineer part anyways

Yessah! 🤙🏾
Fuck i want a f8x for my next car but i might just end up going m340i bc i feel like the b58 might be a lil more reliable..

did you choose one yet?

Lmaooo I’m glad I’m out. That E5 pay wasn’t much either especially being E5 in the barracks (army)
How much money do you think in total is on the maintenance things that you stated?
