If it were only people trying to flip cars, I could understand it; but it isn't that at all. It is people truly playing Russian roulette with their cars in order to save a buck. I'd like to introduce them to the guy I had in the shop this afternoon with an IMS failure in an otherwise immaculate 986. He was nearly in tears when I had to tell him his engine is full of metal and either needs to be replaced or rebuilt, either of which is going to cost almost as much (if not more) as he still owes on the car. Why people even think about experimenting with unknown bearings is beyond me.
