I was about to buy a replacement piston-rings set for forged Mahle 90.5 pistons, but there are 2 sizes available : 1.5 x 2 x 4 and 2 x 2 x 4.

Unfortunately I don't have my rings set with me to check it, do you know wich size I have to get? Pistons/cylinders are new, what size are they out from the box of the Mahle kit? I need a replacement set only for one piston, since I broke one ring while mounting  Roll Eyes Tongue Grin

Thanks!

Thanks Tom! Thats what I've ordered. I've broke the intermediate ring and I need to replace only it for one piston, so I think it will be ok if it's 1.5 or 2 on the first ring (if sizes are given in the good order)  Wink

 The middle ring on both sets are 2mm so you should be good to go as far as replacing your broken ring.
