Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Leading evidence: 'Run long time' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run long time' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

With another thread already discussing non-original bearing failures, I thought this would get included in the thread.
His flange gets quite a hammering from the state of it, must had been wobbling a wee bit!
Haven't seen that before but will follow along to see how it concludes
i guess the real question is, is this fail due to an aftermarket bearing or would a stock bearing fail too?
As much as I feel for the poster
if
that story is real, something just doesn't add up. That bearing and flange looks as though it was driven or run for a long time on a failing bearing, yet the op says "there was no unusual noise" just a CEL... I'm calling bs, at the very least on the story and/or timeline...
Nah, that looks just like the examples of failed bearings I've seen in person (my Indy has a couple in his "throphy" case) and in pictures.
I agree that the description doesn't sound right though. I don't think of ever heard of a quiet failure. Maybe he had music blasting and couldn't hear it?
Of course, as always, the question is what really failed first? Was it the bearing that took out the motor, or something else that took it out.
