{"product_id":"bmw-connecting-rod-bolt-1","title":"Original BMW Connecting Rod Bolt for BMW M5 and Z8 S62 (2000–2003)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Original BMW connecting rod bolt holds the rod bearing cap to the connecting rod on the S62 engine in the 2000–2003 BMW M5 (E39) and BMW Z8 (E52). It is a genuine BMW fastener made in Germany, weighing 31 grams (1.09 oz), and BMW has produced this part number since December 1996. Rod bolts carry the clamping load that keeps each bearing cap seated on its rod while the crankshaft turns, which makes them some of the most heavily loaded fasteners inside an engine. On the S62, this is the bolt BMW specifies for the rod caps, and it belongs on the parts list for any rod bearing replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMW lists part number 11-24-1-405-890 for this S62 rod bolt.
