There was one or two people who criticised the BLS engine for chucking a rod out of the cot but they are very few. Think about how many Caddys are on here with BLS engines fitted to the majority of 2006-2011. Regular servicing with quality parts goes a long way.

I've a feeling the problems some have experienced are due to the engine possibly being run on through a injector loom issue or similar, they are prone to that and the inability to balance the engine at idle due to a fault can have an effect on rods and the likes.
