Rod bearings at 64K miles

daxbox · 02-03-2021, 07:05 PM

Got my rod bearings replaced on my '05 with 64k miles. Definitely visible wear; I'm not an expert, so I don't know how bad they really are... but I'm sleeping better after getting them done.

FYI for those that have been thinking about getting theirs done; maybe the experts can weigh in on how they look.

Car had rigorous annual oil changes throughout its life, and blackstone results were always normal. The car does see some track time.

Do you have the last few Blackstone results? Would be helpful to see in combination with how these look.
