What is included in this piston set?

This Mahle OE piston set includes six bare pistons. Piston rings, wrist pins, and clips are sold separately and must be sourced to complete the installation.

What does 'bare piston' mean?

A 'bare piston' means the piston itself is included, but it does not come with associated components like piston rings, wrist pins, or retaining clips. These parts are typically purchased separately to match your specific engine rebuild needs.

Why are these pistons not CARB approved?

These pistons are not approved by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for use in vehicles registered in California. This means they cannot be legally shipped to or installed on vehicles in California due to emissions regulations.

Product Details

This Mahle OE piston set includes six bare pistons, each measuring 102mm (4.017 inches) in bore diameter. These pistons are designed for 6-cylinder engines and feature a 17.1:1 compression ratio, intended for specific applications from 2005 to 2008, identified by a 'C' in the VIN.

Mahle is a well-known name in engine components, and these pistons are built to OE specifications, meaning they are made to match the original equipment manufacturer's standards for fit and performance. The 'ISB' designation often refers to Mahle's specific piston technology, aiming for durability and efficient combustion within the engine's cylinders. Because these are bare pistons, you'll need to ensure you have the correct piston rings, wrist pins, and clips for your specific engine rebuild, as these are not included in this set. Proper installation is crucial for engine longevity, so refer to your vehicle's service manual for detailed procedures.

It's important to note that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always consult your vehicle's service manual for the correct installation procedures and specifications to ensure a successful engine rebuild.
