Yup, exactly - still pretty interesting to see - in general - what's in our engines ... but damn, that chain guide looks like a bad idea and to think that one choice of plastic took out the entire engine? Geezus, what a tragedy.

The leaky oil in the V also seems scary ...

Anyway, it's a good scared straight video for modding for me
I'm onto my 3rd N63/S63 X5, as the oil burning is real. Haven't had a issue with the S63Tu4 in the F95 comp yet.

No cool down in my gated community, as the garage is where the beast cools down.
