Details

Replace the crankshaft when you hear a deep knocking from the lower engine or its bearing journals are scored, since it converts piston motion into rotation and is the heart of the engine.

• Replacement sign: Deep knocking from the lower engine, low oil pressure, or scoring and damage on the bearing journals.
• Approximate lifespan: Typically lasts the life of the engine, over 200000 km with regular oil maintenance.
• Install requirement: Requires a specialist technician and engine teardown with precise torque settings and bearing clearance checks.
