I'm sorry to hear that but to be totaly correct what I told you was that bearings are questionable when it comes to warranty claims as to start with they are wear and tear items. I also mentioned that to date we have had absolutely no reports of any bearing failures in any way on the B5. Flip back through the last 1300+ posts and you will note that not a single comment from anyone reporting a bearing failure.
I also asked what fuel you were using and you told me the a-main fuel that is made in Australia (which has no affiliation with A-main hobbies here in the US). I told you that there have been a lot of reports about bearing failures with other brands of engines with that fuel including a rather lengthy thread that was on here (and I'm on an iPhone so it's a little difficult to search and post the link but maybe someone on a pc might not mind doing so). So... I suggested that you might want to consider switching fuel brands that you use. I also offered to sell you replacement parts at what was in essence below dealer cost to get you back up and running which I think is a pretty fair offer. It sounds like you are choosing not to take me up on the offer which is unfortunate. Having said that though the offer stands and if you decide down the road that you want to get your motor back up and running the just drop me a line.
