Please keep us posted what would be done and costs.
Yeah what bolts are these. ?
Miners a 2007 build so hopefully out of the danger zone !

Connecting rod bearing cap bolts. IrishCoffee from Romania had this failure. The photos are his. He reported about 10-15 cases in Europe. I counted up to 5 in Aus. Engines are 08-09 at ~120-180K.
