Make that 4.
The place that just did my IMSB stuck it in the service book, next to the stamp for the service they'd just done.

Remembered seeing this a while back - Jake Raby said it goes in the door jamb if done at their facility. Post 32.

As I mentioned my installer is approved and he put it in the door jam. It's also the first place he looks on any 986/996 to see if the IMSB was replace during a PPI.

Jager, was the second replacement because of failure of a LNE double row unit?

No failure, just did not feel as smooth as a new bearing. I had the transmission down doing a clutch replacement and decided to check the bearing. Turned it with my fingers and it didn't feel silky smooth (as a new one), so I replaced it.

Also note that I have a single row bearing.
