Hello all!
I'm new to the forum but have been lurking for quite a while. Been seriously considering purchasing a 986. I found a 2000 Boxster S at a dealer and it seems like a great opportunity (68k miles, service records dating back to 16k miles in '07, new tires, new clutch, new spark plugs, recent convertible top maint.).
Here is my concern. While reviewing the service records, Porsche replaced the clutch at 55k (along with new RMS) and also upgraded the intermediate shaft flange to the newer design, however, the paperwork says nothing about replacing the IMS bearing! The paperwork below states "Replaced rear main seal and intermediate flange and hardware due to oil leakage." Should I be concerned that the bearing will still grenade at any time? What are the chances they inspected it and found it was OK? I don't mind calling the Porsche shop tomorrow to see if I can get more details, but I'm not sure if they will have any more than what shows up below. Thanks for the help!
