Question What is the status of the lawsuit concerning the BMW N20 engine?

The lawsuit is due to an N20 engine flaw that prematurely breaks chain guides and timing chains. Do You know where things currently stand?

Not familiar with this however, I'd love to find out. Have you had any problems with your N20 engine?

Fine so far....

I have not had any problem. I'm @ 92,000 miles and no hint of any whine coming from the engine as the sign it's on it's way out.

I too am curious about this. Unfortunately it seems that once COVID hit the process in the courts regarding this case SEEM to have crawled to a stop- as I haven't heard anything on it since the last update in ~January
