These are from an M3 with 98K miles. Not sure if exact year but they are 088/089.
Another good catch.

Yikes! No1 all naked copper!
Not as bad as the one's tom @ eas posted recently though! In addition to what Iamfodi posted, check out my thread about oil analysis & rod bearing wear linked in my sig.

I'm moving forward with the analysis before the RB job. Then I'm going to do another one after. Figure I can't have to much data! |

Cool!, useful data too if you can get some good quality* photos of the bearings . I'll add your oil report + old bearings photo to my thread.
*e.g not covered in oil, not shot 10 feet back, decent light, in focus, no weird overall colour of lighting/background, etc,etc lol

2011 (LCI) rod bearings with 100k+ miles. They are NOT the factory bearings. Story goes that when G-Power installed their supercharger on this car in 2012ish, they pulled the factory bearings and installed these.

I have no bad experiences with OE Bearings on e46 and e91 BMWs (no M‘s) that have been replaced due to wear and tear. Therefore I go again with OE and when they hold 100k again I am very satisfied, which I expect. I have not seen any BE shells over 100k yet. |
