There doesn't seem to be a trend as to when rod bearing failure occurs as some engines go without having issues while others indicate rod bearing issues relatively quickly. This complete connecting rod bearing set from ACL is a high performance alternative to the standard connecting rod bearings offered by BMW. This set of connecting rod bearings is designed to offer maximum performance and service life at the pre-set factory tolerances.</p><p>Questions about the appearance of the ACL RACE Series performance engine bearings are quite common, as this series of trimetal copper lead bearings have a very different appearance to regular after market ACL Duraglide trimetal bearings, which have a light silver/ grey appearance.</p><p>The ACL RACE Series performance engine bearing as manufactured have an appearance that is dark tarnished colouration, which can vary from dark black/brown/blue colours. This colour comes from the electroplated overlay that has copper as one part of its composition, which tarnishes to the dark colours described above. This tarnish colouration has negligible thickness and has no influence on bearing operation.</p><p>ACL RACE Series performance engine bearings do not start out with the silver grey appearance of regular after market bearings, as there is no final silvery tin flash applied to these bearings. Not applying a silvery tin flash to these high performance bearings is a specific design feature. A silvery tin flash for appearance and long term corrosion protection, as applied to the regular after market bearings, can under high loading and heat, move, with the plate migrating and causing high spots on the back of the shells and distorting the bearing. For this reason the ACL RACE Series performance engine bearings do not have a cosmetic silvery tin flash applied, so there is no risk of any overlay plate movement on the backs of the shells, giving better bearing to housing contact and better bearing performance and function.</p><h2>Fits These Cars</h2><h4>BMW M3</h4><ul><li>2001 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2002 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2003 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2004 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2005 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2006 BMW M3 Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li></ul><span></span><h4>BMW Z3</h4><ul><li>2001 BMW Z3 M Coupe Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2001 BMW Z3 M Roadster Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2002 BMW Z3 M Coupe Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2002 BMW Z3 M Roadster Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li></ul><span></span><h4>BMW Z4</h4><ul><li>2006 BMW Z4 M Roadster Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2006 BMW Z4 M Coupe Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2007 BMW Z4 M Coupe Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2007 BMW Z4 M Roadster Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2008 BMW Z4 M Roadster Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li><li>2008 BMW Z4 M Coupe Engine Connecting Rod Bearing Set<strong>Standard clearance</strong></li></ul>
