My questions are....

. should I get standard clearance bearing or a C3?

Assuming I cant get any oil into the IMS, should I leave both rubber seals in situ on the bearing....maybe remove one seal and repack with grease before refitting both seals??

Thanks
@jimk04 What did you end up doing? How did it last?
