Good luck.

Yes, if I found a car that I liked and the IMSB wasn't already done, I'd buy the car and have the IMSB replaced. My '04 has about 47,000 miles and I plan to have it done later this year with the LN IMS Solution.

Does it need to be a $3,000? No. There are lots of options available to replace the bearing at varying costs. I think that in Ireland you may have a hard time finding a shop that has experience with the IMS Solution, but I think that the EPS bearing is a fairly common fix there.
