I just bought a '99 in August and immediately took it to a certified Porsche mechanic in Toronto and had the IMS done. He also said that it's now good for 6 years. He also put a stamp under the drivers door stating the date the IMS was done (apparently this is something that S/B done whenever any IMS is done). I asked him if the IMS replacement was related to time or km driven and he said time, regardless of how many km were driven.
