That's because Porsche dealers on are strict orders NOT to retrofit LN or any other non-OEM IMS bearings. Pioneer of San Diego (now SD Porsche ) did a few years ago, than had to stop.
BTW I had sranton's warranty work done to my CPO '02 in '04: later RMS and IMS flange, but no IMS bearing activity.
