  • This video goes over the complete breakdown and install of S65 V8 Rod Bearings. My goal was to cover absolutely everything between questions about why this happens, how it happens, and other things around the S65 engine that's recommended to be replaced.
    I hope this helps. Please give it a thumbs up if you found this valuable!

    I spent some serious time making this video and I'm SUPER happy to have it out now. This video shows the RAW look at how rod bearings work. We go over literally everything... why they go out, what brands to go with, pricing depending on where you live, how bad my rod bearings were, what tools to use, what size bolts... you name it, we went 100%. A HUGE thank you to Mike at Precision Dynamics for always taking the time to be on video and explain things so well.
    If you had gotten ANY kind of value, education or entertainment from this video, please hit that thumbs up button! I hope this helped anybody who's either looking to replace their rod bearings, or just doing research before you grab an M3. Happy to help in any kind of way. Feel free to check out the description box to see all info on where you can see more of this car being documented and also Precision Dynamics information.
    Once again, thank you for watching!!!!
    Much love, -SB!!!

      Spencer Berke absolutely fantastic video! I had 2 E92 M3’s in a row. Loved this model so much. Thankfully never had rod bearing issues and it was 8 years ago and I didn’t know the importance of preventative maintenance. I was thinking of getting another one and will def do the rod bearing to avoid any issues down the track.

    Longest video I've ever watched on RUclips, I did BE's & ARP studs on my S54 as well, but always recommend ACL as an alternative too. Spencer you did good with this one! You should consider Ravenol oil, their tech sheets are superior to any other 10w60 on the market currently, and after using a bunch of different oils, my placebo says the motor runs a lot happier on it.

    Purpose of stretch bolts is to reduce the lose of life due to fatigue. Basically stretch bolts handle situations where load on the bolt changes frequently . For example the bolts holding your alternator aren’t getting a ton of load on and off as you drive as opposed to your connecting rod bolts which vary load every revolution.

    Sorry for kind of going off topic. Anyhow, Is it possible for main bearing shells to be replaced from underneath the car after removing the pan for the g80 m3's? Or does the engine need to come out and be torn apart? Thanks. I am affected by the main bearing recall and so I want to know if the dealership is going to fix it the right way. Thanks

    Mike, did my Rod Bearings replaced it with BE Bearings and ARP bolts, and it took them less than 6 hours with another Mike.

    Question; is there a precision dynamics in NY Long Island? Or affiliates? Video was very informative helpful. Helping me decide weather to buy a 2008 BMW M3. Cost of used cars are very high currently, hoping they taper in the coming months. (Interest rates help drive down prices but cost more to finance). Consumers can’t win.
