This is an extreme closup of a rod bearing on a 2.0 I tore down. There is a small crater in the bearing. It is at least a few thousands deep and definitely catches a nail. The scratches through it are from me scraping at it with my nail to see if more would flake off.
Anyone seen this before? I have a cam bearing that is much worse but no pics yet. Attached image(s) |
