Please only vote if you currently own or have previously owned a vehicle with this engine.

Based on the poll results... we can come up with a rough percentage of active forum members who experienced this failure.

We know these results will be skewed as the population of this forum is not necessarily representative of the entire population of N20 owners. That's okay as the results will still be interesting and provide some insight. Plus it will give us something else to argue over and bitch about
Great idea. I'm not voting since I have a B58 engine, but I'm curious to see the results to learn a bit more more about the f30s. As a medical researcher, I'm always interested in disease risk and this is sort of a disease, a car disease. With that in mind do you think you will be able to come up with a potential risk per total cars sold with this engine? Anyway, good luck.
