Owning A Manual F82 M4 With 90K+ Miles Without Doing The Crankhub...Risky?

The F80 and F82 platform is known to be one of the best looking chassis for the M3 platform. One of the biggest handicaps is the possibility of the crankhub failure which can result in a costly expense. In this video, I ask an F82 M4 owner his experience after owning it for 3 years. We also discuss the hot topic of the crankhub on Individual Manual Tanzanite F82 M4.

let me save everyone 14 minutes. it's not risky if you keep it stock or go with OTS map as they're super conservative. if you go custom e85 tune without a crankhub it'll 100% spin eventually. speaking from experience I've spun 2 s55 hubs 😬

had m4, it was a great car, small issues here and there, tons of torque, with a tune and downpipe anyone will be happy with power never did crank hub, sold it with 63k miles...stock m4 looks meh! but one's you add spacers, lowering springs at least, and front, lip, side skirts and rear diffuser. it changes the look like crazy, mine was Black. loved the rear seat room. traction was always an issue, first and second gear :) now I own R35 GT-R, different beast.

For the crank hub, the two main questions are power/transmission. It seems like the DCT cars get that problem more often. Some would say it’s from the quick downshifts from 7-3 or 6-2, for example.

Tanzanite is such a great colour! It has great depth to it! Lovely!

[tauzins]

Always a pleasure being on the vlog! Great vid!

[noisytoaster]

i bought mine in 2022 at 40k miles its at 75k miles now and stage 2 full bolt-on, no issues whatsoever!

[Sublimside]

Nice vid. Completely agree with him on the F80 vs G80 looks and styling. I’ve had my F80 for 7 years and never getting a G80. I have an X3M for the S58.

[DJang]

the build is crazy. I agree since i had an aplina white f82 and upgraded with lci headlights and added lips, ducktail n diffuser too. i did my crankhub cus i liked driving it, but i switched over to a e53 amg cus the 6 speed, the first gear doesn't put the power down and the transition from 1-2 is also weird as he had mentioned, but i didnt know about the clutch delay valve prior. the m4 definitely received lots more compliments and looks as well as the raspy exhaust note, which i do miss but overall still a great car. just not for me

Great video like always. Been awhile bro! Almost at 60k manual, stage2 full bolt ons for 4 years now. Stock ch👍🏾👍🏾

[FHo]

Great vid with Wang 💯 glad you could get a few vids out of this trip despite the 🩹 on the front lip 😅💪🏽

[ZeroEffortF]

Agreed. G8x needs so much work to look good.

[FuriousM]

Great video! F82 is def still has the rawness and aggression 🔥

[timkebienda]

that's the sexiest F82 I've seen. The B-rolls are insane!

[nightcoregirlprinzeugen]

I completely agree with him. The F8X has a beautiful and timeless look unlike the G8X which is a hideous abomination of revolting ugliness. Only people who don't understand car aesthetics would choose the G8X platform.

Interesting how when the E90 was one generation behind, that styling was 'timeless'. Now the F8x is being referred to as timeless. Goes to show that we eventually get used to what we see. Who knows, maybe someone a decade from now will be calling the buck tooth G series 'timeless' too.

I'm Stage 2, 112k miles and I've been on the stock crankhub for 20, 000 miles

[M_is_for_Monty]

That color looks really nice. Combined with carbon and dark bronze parts would be perfect.

[Jtbg]

That’s really interesting about going from 1st to 2nd. I was recently having issues with going to 3rd from 2nd under heavy throttle. Idk I just need more time getting use to the manual in this car or what. But I felt like novice and manuals are the only cars I’ve ever owned.

[TheRochoa]

That color is amazing I have an x5 in the same color

My e90 m3 currently has leaking valve covers and coolant expansion tank 😅 along with thermostat
