Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Engine bearings ensure that the rotating assemblies spin smoothly ensuring optimal performance and longevity. As the engine ages, these bearings can become worn and thin which allows excess play and increased wear. If the engiine becomes oil-starved, the bearing will become dry, heat up and spin around the shaft for a total failure.
