The PO of my 02 S got Porsche (great dealer in Austin) to replace the engine after inability to get the engine to take multiple IMS leaks and inbalance in the 3.2L --- that was 10k miles ago with no issues. Engine runs like new. Engine had about 40k on it when it the replacement was done. Not sure but I think because it was so religiously serviced and every single thing was done through the dealer, the dealer really went to bat for this owner and got it replaced once and for all. I got copies of all of the maintenance and service records and I must tell you that the PO was extremely detailed and careful about the care of this car.
I guess I got lucky....but Porsche needs to really step up and admit its design and processing failures with these engines....should at least offer the parts and labor at their cost as a minimum to its loyal customers.
