I wonder how many of other VCA members have experienced spun bearings at 3-4 pistons on their Gen III's.
My car was originally a Chrysler executive car, and I bought it used with about 10,000 miles on it. Thank God it's still under the 3 year warranty! No telling how the car was abused BEFORE I got it. I've always taken good care of it over the term of my ownership, but my Vipertech says this failure process has been going on for a while in this engine. I have about 17,000 total miles on it. They will ship the engine to Arrow for rebuild, as I intend to keep the original engine with matching numbers.
My Vipertech says the #4 piston is the last in sequence to get oil from the oil pump, and this type failure is relatively the most common type of engine failure. Have any of you Viper owners had this happen to your Gen III?
