Those last 30 seconds are why I pay people to work on my M3 rather than do it myself. Absolutely terrifying.

Did that sound like a spun bearing?

Sounded like a squealing belt/pulley to me but noises on camera, on computer speaker are hard to identify lol.

If it is a bearing it’s totally heartbreaking, hopefully the crank is ok.

See, I thought it sounded like a squeal of a belt as well, though when he started up, it did sound a bit rough, but nothing too serious.

Did not sound like a spun anything…but it makes for a great lead up to the next video

Right but wouldn’t the bearing fail right away, like on the initial startup, if it was done wrong? Or would it be fine for a short time before failing?

Would probably last a few miles.
