Litronics are a very expensive oem upgrade. They are xenon low beams with a halogen high beam. Overall they make the car look much younger than it actually is. IMS is the intermediate shaft bearing, turns out porsche made a bad part choice on this one and they can fail, in the case of a failure you are expecting the whole engine to go with it. This does not happen as often as the hoop-la around here makes it seem, but because of how much money it may cost you, many replace the bearing with one that to our knowledge won't fail.
