Thank you your very welcome, i am enjoying dismantling my engine and seeing how things work, im very impressed with the engineering that goes into making engines, enjoy

it would have been better to split the engine case, rather than being inside for the conrods, pretty certain that's how they get assembled. The 3 white or yellow dots on the conrod mark the model. The bearing shells are 23€ each and you have a "smaller" size as well +0.25 (mm) in case you need to "lapp" the crank , the bolts are 13€ each in Germany. The crank is 942,75€

I wouldn't do anything to the crank nor the bearing shells (if there is no play), that's rather a minute scratch, maybe some polish with a dremel to make sure it's under the surface. an inspection and cleaning of the oil channels seams to be due.

Theres a engineering shop near me, i think they wont need to do anything, just a clean up, i will prob buy a set of shells , if you look on my paper chart you can see i have x2 cap shells 603, rather than a 603 and a 604 shell, the engines running perfect like that, ?

@@Tattytyres i saw that in the end. Well, i just looked in the catalog from a big big German BMW dealer, 603 = cap, 604 = conrod. maybe some "mechanic" on a monday morning, lol. My dealer doesn't allow me to return parts after order, maybe you should take the shells to a dealer to compare with a caliper vs new if they have these on stock. It didn't look like the conrod was freely to move lateral cause the scratch to be wider and more groves. it should be good to go again. but i guess you have to make work of the oil channels in the crank, case parts and try to find particles. your oil pump housing also has some scratches. When you have the crank at hand, put a drop of oil on there and mount the conrod again, if there is no play. use it again, there is some "plastic" compound engineers use, they roll a sausage and mount the conrod, than disassemble again and measure with caliper how think the "plastis sausage" is after being sqauzed. the same trick is also used on camshafts to see if the caps are still good.

@mathewhighley4495 the 2 parts of the oil pump housing is 35€ and 77€, the 3 rotors are 30€ each, but the shaft is 260€ ... and it's probably the cause. please show them.

BMW don't make it easy with their markings / part numbers, I woud expect the rod end part numbers to be 7700 604. Having a part number of 7700603 with 604 underneath I wonder if that just refers to the pair as in it should be paired with 7700 604? I don't seem to find any references to 3066B or 3076A. I could post the question on ukgser if you like to see if we get any response. Just let me know.

11247700603 conrod cap side. 11247700604 conrod side. They are matched pair used on pre 2010 models.
