1999 with double row ims vs single row

[Boxtaboy]

I have kept my Boxster what I consider long term (have had it for 15 yrs now), and have never bought into this need to preemptively change out the IMS or install an oil feed system. I don't drive it that much either (only put about 3-4K miles a year), and only change the oil every 2 yrs with Mobil 1 0w-40 (oil that most people here don't recommend). Whatever, the car runs awesome and has never failed me (have only had to replace a water pump, coolant tank, engine mount, a MAF, and brakes). It's still running. Amazing, huh? Just drive it and enjoy it.

could have been my post almost
Basically the same here...16 years old and max 5k km per year (obviously not my DD), service @ dealership every other year...nothing...nada...no repairs...nothing failed...it runs and runs and runs.
If the engine fails, it fails, there are other things to worry about in life

ENJOY PORSCHE. Don't worry!
