Martyn - my OEM alloy conrod (from my 1996 500) has just been replaced by a steel one. The alloy rod eye-to-eye measurement (measured 5 times with a digital caliper) giving a range of values 175.2mm to 175.4mm.
Perhaps it was either badly manufactured or stretched, as it is 8-16thou longer than it should be. I can see no distortion to the alloy, and the little and big ends fit with no appreciable play!
Perhaps I am one of the lucky ones that swapped it out before it snapped.
Cheers, Chris
