Are you trying to start ANOTHER IMS conspiracy? Why is it every issue on a 986 seems to trace back to the IMS bearing? For the bearing to cause that kind of imbalance to affect the steering the engine would have to wobble and if that was happening you know it would have grenaded by now.

This business of the IMS being the root of EVERYTHING WRONG with the 986 has got to stop.

I have to check my right rear fog light. I think the IMS is causing it to not work.

I've had this issue since December 2017 - I'm fairly certain the IMS would have blown up by now. Also, wouldn't the IMS much more likely cause a rear wheel wobble?
