I just got in on a GB for new coated bearings, so will have them for sometime in the future. I will be doing a Blackstone oil analysis later this month to see where my 2007 Z4MC with 37k miles stands...
Ditto...Thanks for the informative post

Unfortunately, there are still some documented failures...just do a search on here and on M3forum. My 03/2008 built is already showing 20ppm lead on my last oil analysis with only 28k street driven miles

I think you got the "treated" bearings, right? NOT "coated"?
