To replace the IMSB or not? That is the question.

Normally, I'd say that if the bearing made it to 95K miles, it is likley to last until the clutch needs replacement.

But clearly you are worried about it enough that you're checking the filter in between oil changes. In this situation, I'd say replace the IMS bearing as soon as possible. Boxster ownership should be gratifying and enjoyable, not a constant worry. Replace the bearing and sleep well again!
