I understand that dual row bearings have failed. For me, knowing whether I have a dual or single row bearing helps me decide whether to replace the bearing without regard to the condition of the clutch (single row) or wait until the car needs a clutch and replace the bearing then (double row). If there is a less than one percent chance of a double row bearing failing and a 4 to 8 percent chance of a single row bearing failing, that is a significant difference to me and will help me make a decision. At this point I am leaning toward waiting until my car needs a clutch to do anything with the bearing and in the meantime will continue to check camshaft deviation with my durametric and examine the oil filter for metal.
