what Tim says ,


inline 4 is really a pisspoor design in terms of vibrations, V6 -8 - 10 aren't that much better either...

VW's VR6 on the other hand is a close call, as it is technically closer to an inline 6 then it is to a true V6...

once saw a swedish dude take apart a BMW V12 from a 760I ... after a gazillion miles, the main bearings hardly had visible wear on them...
