hybrid 1043 Report post Posted May 25, 2013 Sounded like a Big end bearing failure. you could hear the rattling when the started to drive off at the start. The rest is just damage from parts flying around the crack case. As for cause, could be anything. Neglect, low oil pressure, engine had a very hard life etc ..

Dave@nz 11 Report post Posted May 26, 2013 I agree sounded like the bigends were noisy from the start off and the black oil looks like neglect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, is sounded rough under deceleration at 24-25 seconds in the clip, sounded like a subtle knock of sorts. Nasty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
