Your Nissan engine generates force when it runs, and that power moves the engine pistons back and forth. To make that single-plane piston motion translate into a rotational force that moves your wheels (and your Nissan) forward, your engine’s crankshaft needs to have a connection point to the pistons. That relationship is where the engine connecting rod comes into play.

At one end of the rod sits the Engine Connecting Rod Bearing. The Engine Connecting Rod Bearing is a cylindrical piece that reduces friction and encourages fluid rotary force for your engine's connecting rods at the point where they insert on the crankshaft. The Engine Connecting Rod Bearing is one of many components of the complex crankshaft mechanism, but it’s vital for engine longevity.

Since your Nissan connecting rods are subject to an extremely repetitive motion, a damaged Engine Connecting Rod Bearing could cause a misshapen cylinder or diminished engine efficiency. If the condition is bad enough, a warped or damaged rod bearing can lead to breakage in your connecting rod and permanent damage to the entire crankshaft system (which is, unfortunately, not able to be repaired and will debilitate your engine permanently).

Replacing your Nissan Engine Connecting Rod Bearing, part 1211153F00, will require specific know-how and skills, as well as significant labor. Therefore, it’s best to turn to the experts at your local Nissan authorized service center for the job.

When you want to help your Nissan’s engine run efficiently for many years to come, don't settle for less than the best replacement parts. When you shop Nissan Parts directly, you'll receive custom-designed replicas of the original components installed during the manufacturing process. Make the smart choice when you trust those who know your vehicle best—Nissan, of course— for parts, accessories, and a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty you won't find anywhere else.
