He always had it serviced by the same dealer, they saw the car earlier for scheduled maintenance. He did talk to the service manager after incident about IMS but he got the Schultz response "I Know nothing , nothing" there is no IMS problem.

I guess Porsche has no concept of customer retention
Absolutely pathetic; this is the kind of stuff that can scare the crap out of potential buyers, but there always seem to be a steady supply of those that are undeterred by stories like this.

Jake--having the car fail with a tiptronic made me wonder if the typical driving style with the auto tranny--low revs, shifting early--lends itself to these kind of failures. Any logic to that?
