My Boxster went in today to Wrightune to have the IMS Guardian fitted - if you have a 24k or later service done then you get free fitting. I needed a major service so decided to do the two together.

The car has done 69k so (I am led to believe) is less at risk from IMS failure - none the less I will be happier knowing that there is some form of warning in case the bearing starts to self destruct.

I just installed it on my 1998 Boxster this week. The car has 104K, I sleep much better at night now! This issue was driving me nuts!

I have had the Ims Guardian installed for two years now. Has anybody with it installed had the alarm go off yet?

I have exactly the same problem. I may follow your advice with the leds and connect them to the aux output.
