After lots of reading about the dreaded IMS bearing failure and inquiries to local PCA tech savvy people, Porsche Dealers and independent shops I decided I didn’t want to chance it.

On Friday, I took my 02 Boxster S to a recommended independent shop that has already done a few L/N IMS update kits. I’m having the L/N IMS bearing kit done and a new RMS installed. The L/N IMS bearing kit should be in on Tuesday and I should have the car back by Wednesday. I’m going there tomorrow to look under the car w/out the transmission in it.

Hopefully this “preventive measure” was the right move.
