Highly publicised on tuned S55 cars, crank-hub slip can throw engine timing out and destroy the valvetrain. Stock cars are less vulnerable, but mapped examples deserve extra caution.
- Coolant Loss / Charge Cooling Leaks(Moderate)
Turbo M3s can develop small coolant leaks around expansion tanks, auxiliary coolers, or charge-cooling hardware. They are often minor at first, but repeated top-ups are not normal.
