Sorry to resurrect an old thread but the more I read the forum the more worried I get about the much talked about IMS failure. My Vin: WP0CA29841U621069 I don't believe lies in that range. Moreover, on the passenger door sill, the manufactured date states 09/00 in Finland which I believe is September 2000. This must mean my engine was manufactured before that. Is that any assurance that I could have a double row bearing? Losing sleep over this so finally decided to put it out there. Thanks.
