I'm not replying because after my IMS went, PCNA replaced the engine, so technically it wasn't serviced, it was replaced, along with a new engine.

Bought mine about 20 months ago and had the IMS replaced shortly thereafter. I bought the car knowing I was going to do this and priced it into the purchase. Been sleeping well ever since.

The car had 52,800 miles on it. 2004 base Boxster. Bought used and just under the 10 year IMS cap from the lawsuit. PCNA covered 90% of the cost. The dealer I bought the car from covered the 10% plus a new clutch. He stood by the deal since I had only put 2700 miles on the car since I bought it.
