Just to better understand this issue...
Jake,

The oil that comes out from a RMS leak, is the oil going around the bearing or through it?
Along those lines...If it is going through it, do cars like mine that had 4 RMS repairs prior to the IMS replacement have a less chance of failure?
Should a very leaky RMS be replaced?
Do cars that have a single leak and then never leak again have a greater failure rate because there is oil going through the bearing, but at a slow rate and therefore not washing completly through?

Enquiring minds want to know
