I thought the fact that I put a smiley face on my original comment would ensure folks knew it was a joke. I guess porsche666 didn't see it that way. I'd hate to think my IMS failed because I'm a jerk.......we'll need to add that one to the pile though along with the oil used, how hard the car was driven, how many miles it has, etc. Beyond a somewhat bad design with a weak sealed bearing by Porsche I supposed it's as good a theory as anything else.
