My new to me '02 986S is having a bunch of preventative maintenance done:
-LN Single Row Pro upgrade kit
-RMS
-New dual mass flywheel
-Clutch/pressure plate? More on that later
-AOS
-Water pump
-Thermostat
-Coolant flush
-Gbox 2nd gear popout detent kit
On the lift:
New RMS installed, IMS installation tool in place
The old IMS
Surprisingly, the old IMS felt like it had no play whastsoever. I was quite surprised to see the seals looking like they were mostly intact. The car looks to have had a clutch replaced within the past 10-15k miles (the friction disc has lots of life left), so I almost wonder if they installed a replacement IMS at that point.
I look forward to getting it back, hopefully by the end of the week.
