I think its more PR to tell anyone with a Boxster to hurry out to your approved IMS bearing installer and have it switched out asap regardless of the year.
We have a couple OEM dual row customer's that would disagree with you as they had to replace their engines when the "not prone to fail" IMS bearings killed their otherwise fine M96's.................
