Connecting Rod Bearing Set for the 2.5-litre 4-cylinder engine, including the 200 TDi and 300 TDi diesels. These are the replaceable big-end shell bearings that fit between the connecting rods and the crankshaft journals, providing the running surface through which the rods drive the crankshaft.

Supplied in standard size, for a crankshaft running at its original (unmachined) crankpin diameters. Renewed during an engine rebuild or when big-end knock, bearing wear or low oil pressure is found.

Frequently asked questions

What is the conrod bearing set and what does it do?
This conrod bearing set is the big-end shell bearings for the 2.5-litre 4-cylinder engine, including the 200TDi and 300TDi diesels. They fit between the connecting rods and the crankshaft journals, giving the running surface through which the rods drive the crank.
Does this set cover the whole engine?
Yes, it's supplied as a complete set covering all the big-ends on the four-cylinder engine. You renew the whole set together during a rebuild rather than individual shells, so the bearing clearances stay matched.
What does standard size mean for these bearings?
Standard size suits a crankshaft running its original, unmachined crankpin diameters. If the journals have been reground, an undersize set is needed instead, so confirm the crank's history before ordering this standard set.
What are the signs of worn conrod bearings?
Big-end knock, low oil pressure or bearing material in the oil typically signal worn conrod bearings. Left unchecked on these 2.5L engines, a failed big-end can seize the connecting rod and wreck the crankshaft.
