Connecting Rod Bearing Selection: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 Honda Odyssey, 2016 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and 2013 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Each connecting rod falls into one of four tolerance ranges (from 0 to 0.024 mm (0.00095 in), in 0.006 mm (0.00024 in) increments) depending on the size of its big end bore.

It is then stamped with a number or bar (1, 2, 3, or 4/I, II, III, or Nil) indicating the range. You may find any combination of 1, 2, 3, or 4/I, II, III, or INI in any engine.

Big End Bore Size: 58.0 mm (2.283 in) 

Inspect the connecting rod for cracks and heat damage.
