I am having a new clutch and flywheel put into my 01 S at the Porsche dealership. When I talked to the front desk service manager about having the RMS replaced, he said good idea. But when I asked about the IMS bearing. He said that they don't often do that when the clutch goes unless there's something wrong with it. I've been reading about the IMS and a replacement from LN Engineering and have seen some recommendations to do it if you have to replace the clutch....

Seems as though I'm getting conflicting advice.

Anyone had it done one way or the other?
Thanks --
