I haven't changed out the IMS, and won't. I already got my money's worth in the years I've had with my car, and if it goes, the whole car goes, and it's ok. It's served me really well so far, so no complaints. That's not to say this whole thing hasn't intrigued me...it's interesting reading all the theories which is why I posted the link to that guy's comments. What really interests me is how fellow Boxster owner MarcW from PedrosBoard can get over 300K miles now (and still going) on his 02 base 986 with his IMS and clutch still original. If there is an inherent problem with the IMS design, how can some not fail at all?...ever? Why don't they ALL fail if they are flawed? Why only 1% or 8% or whatever the number is? What about the other 92%?....those are unflawed?....
