Hi since my 2003 S engine crapped out on me a little over a week ago I missed the RND engine sale and would have loved to been able to buy one of them! Unfortunately for us a lot of cost accounting went into the design and engineering of our cars and the M96 and M97 engines. When my engine is torn down and the failure is determined I’ll post the details. My engine had less than 78,000 miles and I had the IMSB upgraded to the LN Single Row Pro at around 42,000 miles. I doubt that was what failed but we’ll see soon enough, for what a sample of one is worth. As for the conversation with EPS, there are lots of salesman who will badmouth their competitors and who knows if the engines they see with failed LN IMSB’s were already damaged before they installed new IMSB’s. And warranties at the end of the day are a financial equation for anyone offering one-it makes perfect sense to me that the warranty was extra on the clearance sale engines, and LN* didn’t build those engines with the intent to move them out in a clearance sale. You should rest easy, get your car back together and enjoy it!

*LN, RND, Bilt Racing and a few other companies are all Charles Navarro.
