The same problem the car always had.
I had spent a load of money getting it fixed but the old mechanic didn't measure the crankshaft or take it to a machine shop like I asked him to and like he said he did.
So the brand new bearing was the wrong size on one cylinder and scored the shaft, apparently too badly to machine.

What is it with you bro?
By this time couldn't you buy a Liana M15a vvt head and block and re-use your manifolds etc? you would only lose 100cc and some power but your car would be driving for alot less :idea:

lol..... what u need is a new mech and a bush bath ..... the m series bearing are different from block to block... each block has a code of letters and numbers .... u have to use the service manual and it will give you the colour codes for the correct size bearing at lifestyle.
