Last Saturday I met and talked to a guy with a 99 base that had a failed IMS at low mileage. Less than 30k miles. Porsche replaced his engine under warranty but who knows what that bearing is. No engine is immune. My recommendation was when the clutch is done (low mileage, so it's still an original clutch @67k) have them see what bearing is in that replacement engine and be ready to replace it
