I just had the IMS bearing replaced in my '99 986 base. the clutch was getting a little spongy and some ever so slight slip (I really took it to my indie because of a really bad clatter that started quite suddenly). any way, clatter was from the water pump deciding to retire.
so anyway, clutch need changing so might as well do IMS too.
I wish I had taken pix of the operation to change the IMS. my mech didn't lock down the crank, just the cam shafts. He has done a bunch of boxsters and made the job look easy.
my indie mech is a little ocd. I don't know if it's because he's a retired navy fighter jock and a top gun grad, but the guy is better than most dealer mechs.
everything went fine and the old IHS was starting to stick instead of spinning freely. good call on his part. he said there was no deviation in the cams which surprised him as the car has 94K on the clock...
