Hard to say if as they age more we will see more IMS issues, or if they are as strong as Porsche says and the 1% is more of an anomaly than an issue.
But to ask if they have the SAME issue as older models, I would say no - far far reduced issues around IMS.

Don't bet on it, we have seen failures, as have other shops. As for getting hard numbers, well, you would have to file legal action against Porsche to find out.....
