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

The +0.25mm sizing indicates that these bearings are designed for a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.25mm on the journals. This is a common step in engine rebuilding to ensure a fresh, precise fit and optimal oil clearance.

What is trimetal construction?

Trimetal bearings are constructed with three distinct layers. This advanced design typically includes a steel backing for strength, a middle layer for embeddability and conformability, and a surface layer that handles the direct contact with the crankshaft, offering improved durability and performance.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a set of connecting rod bearings. For an engine rebuild, you will typically need a set for each connecting rod, and this package contains the necessary bearings for the complete set of connecting rods for your engine.

About this part

Product Details

King Engine Bearings is well-known for making solid engine components. If you're rebuilding the engine in your 2003-2006 Porsche Cayenne, this set of connecting rod bearings is a critical part of that job. These bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, allowing the rod to spin smoothly while handling the immense forces generated during combustion.

This particular set is a trimetal bearing, which means it's constructed with three distinct layers designed to work together for optimal performance and durability. The +0.25mm sizing indicates these are intended for an engine that has been machined to a slightly larger diameter on the crankshaft journals, a common practice during an engine rebuild to ensure a fresh, precise fit. King Engine Bearings are a popular choice for many mechanics because they offer a well-built component that fits right and performs reliably.

When you're putting an engine back together, especially one as robust as the Cayenne's, using the correct size and quality bearings is essential for the longevity and performance of your build. Always refer to your vehicle's specific service manual for detailed installation procedures and torque specifications.
