Unsafe Condition
Metal particles in the oil filter may indicate rear bearing failure, leading to increased oil consumption or reduced oil pressure.
AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
Required Actions
Inspect the oil filter within 25 hours' time in service after AD effective date, and every 50 hours thereafter. If metal particles are found, remove engine from service and inspect rear bearing per Rolls Royce Service Bulletin Da. 72-232. Adjust intervals may be permitted upon FAA approval.
AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
