Dan Beagle from Mahle spoke on the subject and said low radial pressure on the bearing shell could be a possible answer. This was on the AERA webinar.

Mr Beagle advised to check with the rod manufacturer on correct ID finish in housing bore. It maybe to smooth and allowing the shells to move.

Maybe you need a oil with more EPI activities To keep the oil from being squeezed out!
