    Any one here spin the #5 rod bearing?

    I did! In my UrS4
    I'm either replacing the lump with a 16k mile long block, thanks to my friends at Shokan.com or getting Pauter rods, and turning the boost up higher past 28

    But a post I made to the S-car list (UrS4/S6) seems to pull up more then a couple people who have also spun the same bearing.

    Any of you guys do the same, or hear of the same bearing getting eaten up?

    What mileage was on the car?

    What do you mean by "spun" ?

    I have recently replaced all the rod bearings (and crank bearings) and didn't notice any difference in wear between them - that is with 117000 miles and running 330bhp for 40,000 miles.
