Designed and manufactured by Clevite to BE Bearing specifications.
These bearings replace the factory BMW rod bearings. The original BMW bearings have too little clearance, which leads to premature bearing wear and can cause early engine failure. Furthermore, the factory BMW bearings are made from tin-aluminum which are 5-times harder than a softer lead-copper bearing design. A softer bearing is better for your engine and more tolerant of foreign particles suspended in your oil.
These BE Bearings feature a state-of-the-art Clevite Tri-Metal design with the Clevite Tri-Armor(tm) coating.
Fits the following BMWs:
2005-2010 E60 BMW M5
2005-2010 E63/64 BMW M6
Designed by BE Bearings, manufactured by ARP. These custom made rod bolts are designed to be used on BMW factory connecting rods.

Their bolts have been measured and verified to guarantee minimal bore distortion, and stay within the ARP torque specification.

Has your BMW's with the N62 V8 engine developed a coolant leak at the front of the engine from the timing cover weep hole? If so the it is likely that the coolant transfer pipe seal, located below the intake manifold has developed a leak. Normally, replacing the seal on this pipe would require almost 40 hours of labor and involve removing the entire engine from the car, then removing the cylinder heads, and timing covers. With this new collapsible pipe this repair can be accomplished in under 10 hours! This solution will save you or your mechanic from a bunch of headaches and get your V8 back on the road leak free!
With more than 100 years in the industry, Elring is one of the oldest names in the European autoparts segment. Delivering OE-quality you can rest assured the job will be done right the first time.
