What does the +0.25mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.25mm sizing indicates that these bearings are intended for use when the engine's crankshaft connecting rod journals have been machined down by 0.25mm. This is a common practice during engine rebuilding to clean up wear or damage on the journals.

What is King's "Obstructive Crush" design?

King's "Obstructive Crush" is a design feature that helps to keep the bearings securely seated in the connecting rod housing. This helps prevent bearing movement or 'walk' under the stresses of engine operation, contributing to their durability.

Do these bearings come with installation instructions?

While these bearings are designed for a direct fit in the specified Audi engines, it is always recommended to consult the official manufacturer's service manual for detailed installation procedures, including proper torque specifications and any required assembly lubricants.
