When it comes to engine health, con rod bearing failure is one of the most serious and potentially catastrophic problems you can face. These essential components act as the liaisons between the crankshaft and connecting rods, allowing the pistons to move smoothly and efficiently. However, when con rod bearings fail, the consequences can be severe.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), con rod bearing failure is responsible for over 10% of all engine failures.
The average cost of repairing a con rod bearing failure is between $2,500 and $6,000, depending on the severity of the damage.
The most effective way to prevent con rod bearing failure is to follow the recommended maintenance schedule for your vehicle. This includes regular oil changes, oil filter replacements, and inspections. Dirty oil can clog the oil passages and starve the bearings of lubrication, leading to premature failure.
Symptoms of Con Rod Bearing Failure | Causes of Con Rod Bearing Failure |
---|---|
Knocking or tapping noises from the engine | Worn or damaged bearings |
Low oil pressure | Insufficient lubrication |
High oil temperature | Overheating engine |
Reduced engine power | Increased friction and resistance |
