Some thoughts on that.
Every oil circuit has an oil filter bypass. So the oil is not filtered under all circumstances.
The IMS bearing material wasn't designed for an motor oil feed. Is was designed for a special grease filling.

But hey, maybe i think too much sometimes.

yes i have the tuneRS DOF system. i'd be seriously pissed if thats what failed but we'll see. I have the double row bearing that was replaced with the DOF. the original bearing with 111000 miles on it looked good when taken out, i've done oil changes every 4-5k miles and i've driven the car almost on a daily basis (30 miles plus) in the last year except for a couple of months when i was out of the country. and i drove it like it was meant to be driven, garage queen she was not.. so i dont think it was the IMS that went..
