You may be right on Pedro's engine...and the LN bearing was put in at what mileage? Probably 160k+ as it hasn't been out that long and my last said the longest mileage on the LN part was at about 30k.
I was responding to multiple points from prior posters..that there was a 50% failure rate and that there were few cars with many many miles on an IMS. Neither of which assertions my readings cause me to agree with. And trying to use Pedro's car as an example because it had so many miles on the original engine and failed not from an IMS problem and not on normal roads in normal driving style..though perhaps it was for him.
And if someone is worried about that risk, what about the other 4-6 potential causes of failure that we hear of? I figure I've over- improved too many of my cars.
What are the odds of 3 tail lights burning out on the wife's Acura at the same time? I replaced all 4 but then the cost was $2.50 for the extra bulb and my labor is cheap.
