My last word is this, it was indy mechanics that developed a fix and a special puller for the double row bearings..

The 944 has the fiasco with having to replace the timing belt regularly or else the car blows up. The Boxster "improvement" is that now you have to replace the IMS bearing or else IT blows up.

The IMS bearing issue is a huge black eye for Porsche.
