THE IMS BEARING FAILED IN MY 997! My 997 has been at Flat 6 Innovations since July. Jake said he had never seen an IMS Bearing go out on a 997 street car. As you all know the repair/rebuild is not cheap. So let me tell you again who is sick of IMS Bearing. I AM SICK OF IMS BEARING!!
Sorry for your loss. Would you share how many miles you had in the 997 engine when it went south? Was it the original grease-filled version or the seal had been removed? Cheers
