Zusammenfassung:A length-adjustable connecting rod for a reciprocating piston machine, which may be a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine, is disclosed as well as a reciprocating piston machine and a vehicle. The connecting rod comprises a hydraulic length-adjusting device for adjusting an effective connecting rod length and a control device that can switch between two switching states, for controlling the length-adjusting device. The length-adjusting device comprises a hydraulic cylinder with a piston and a first hydraulic working chamber and a second hydraulic working chamber, the control device comprising a first valve and a second valve, the first valve of the control device being connected to the first hydraulic working chamber of the length-adjusting device in a fluid-communicating manner, and the second valve to the second hydraulic working chamber, the first valve and the second valve each being actuatable by means of a hydraulically actuatable adjusting piston that can axially move along an adjusting axis, the adjusting axis of the first valve being different from the adjusting axis of the second valve.
