M6 engine with 82K needs to be replaced
More to follow, but my engine blew (was always on top of service etc) I have an aftermarket plan which is not finalized but appears will pay for the replacement of the engine. It will be almost 50K through dealer. Any thoughts?

I assume they won't know the cause until they start the teardown. Any updates? If you don't mind me asking. What warranty? What oil? Tuned? |

Hi so Fidelity Agreed to pay it is 47K for the whole thing they agreed to pay 40K, the dealer willing to help some, I will have to pay 3500 out of pocket. it is m6 2017 with performance package and executive package, no mods or anything. when it is all done have a big decision to let it go or keep it.

I'm not an expert, but copper in the oil would be a telltale sign of bearing wear. That's why I send my oil out to Blackstone every time I change it, approximately 3500 miles on average. Once you get back in the saddle, it's something you might consider yourself for the $40 extra.

Does it have to be done by the dealer? You could get a fully built motor if you went through a reputable independent company. |

Sounds like you lucked out. Keep it if you still love the car, service it well and enjoy your new engine!
