I think bowser is referring to mine as when it was repaired the motor was stupidly loud on closing at the last stage, took it to BMW and they diagnosed it as faulty motor and replaced it all FOC, so happy days.
Am now wondering if mine is too noisy.....will have to get along to a meet and listen to one thats a known quantity.....
same here, would be interesting to hear mine alongside somebody elses to see if mines normal or not.... why isnt there anybody else near me :tumbleweed:

Is it mainly pre facelift motors that fail?

Takes longer for the facelift one to fail as they have more wrapping around it. Did not stop the failing altogether though.
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo

A week normally!

Dell - great to meet you today!

DPG - same setup on both pre & facelift models so equal chances of failing.

Not identical in facelift as that had more insulation around it.
