Rod bearing failure. This had very minor rod knock that another local shop tried to fix by replacing the bearings with OEM bearings and bolts stating the journals looked fine. After that work the slight knock persisted around 3k rpm so the owner brought it to us. #1 rod bearing spun within 200 miles of being replaced. Aside from that very slight knock at 3k there were no other symptoms of failure.

Anything we should worry about with the mains after replacing with BE rb's? Or just ignore this and try to not stress as it's purely a bmw lottery..?
