I'm about to buy an engine and replace it myself, i'm wondering what my chances are of getting reimbursed if I document everything- can anyone chime in as to DIY reimbursements?

Unlucky me I have had 2 major issues w/N20. First: timing chain guide/oil pump (luckily caught issue prior to failure)...at ~72k. Second: Crankshaft bearing failure at ~90k last year. This failure on local road with engine shutdown. Fortunately I was driving, not my wife. My wife has lost faith in this vehicle...and in our minds the tarnish on the brand (for being both safe and reliable) is substantial.
Lucky me: In both situations, BMW NA supported repairs, financially, working w/local dealer.
