None of the theories I've heard so far really jive with everything he's said...
Everyone on both threads is slowly leaning towards very obvious meth kit or fuel injector failure. Oil starvation would lead to bad bearings, like the high mileage NA/supercharged E90 M3 guys are seeing. Blown oil pump, would be a first ever reported for the N54.
