 530i-Test
BMW is replacing the engines under warranty - more than 600 as of early 1998 - but has balked at paying for the replacement(s) if the car hasn't been serviced by a "registered agent" (BMW dealer) in the first year.

he BMW M60 V-8 and BMW M52 6-cylinder engines (the M52 Nikasil engine never came to the USA) with Nikasil cylinder bore linings are particularly vulnerable to fuel (gasoline or petrol) with a high sulfur content.
