Was never the result of criminal action, but rather simple greed.

Because the problem crossed state lines, it became a federal legal matter, which means the ruling affects every shop in the country.
Next thing you know, your service data became akin to a national secret. This was your classical pyric victory for the car owners, as very few actually got more than lunch money out of the settlement, the industry is saddled with rules requiring secure storage protection for all customer information, which raised service costs, which were promptly added to every service invoice. Only the lawyers actually won anything of consequence...

Wow. And yet, IIRC, we still don't own our own DNA.

As has been mentioned before, he'll have to check the serial number on the motor.

TO - if you have an idea how I can see the engine serial number
w/o lifting the car, I would be happy to hear it.
Otherwise, the next time I'm around the Porsche shop I'll go in and ask
them nicely to lift the car and check

So I got under the car and verified this is a replacement engine
M96/23AT65466219
M96/23 = what is the 23 ?
6 = 6 Cylinder
5 = Engine Version
4 = what is that
66219 = Engine Serial Number

I don't know how accurate this is, because it specs "VarioCam" on 2003 and up MY, when in reality the earlier motors have it too.

Thanks TeamOxford,
Does this means that they replaced the original 2004 engine that failed because of the ims bearing
with another 2004 engine with the same ims bearing that could also fail ?

It means that the original 2004 engine was replaced with a 2004 factory replacement engine. It does not mean that the original engine failed because of the IMS bearing.
But since you mentioned that "there was a line there saying :NV Wty Intermediate Shaft", then it may be safe to assume that the IMS bearing was the cause of the failure.
The replacement engine has the same IMS bearing as the original - single row.

Forgive me for digressing for a moment. So, 2000-2002 engines are designated M96.22 and 2003-2004 engines are M96.23. If both versions have single-row IMS bearings, what's the difference?
Number of chains?
Can an M96.23 engine replace an M96.22?

Basically the 03+ is a three chain and 97-02 is a 5 chain. Heads are different but I believe the short block is the same

TO - are saying that although Porsche never admitted officially to this IMSB defect,
it replaced engines that were destroyed by it with same engines with same defect and did not try to fix this ?
was the LN Engineering fix already available in 2008 ?
