No. 12 and 13. they want over 2000 dollars for the job. Is this normal to buy it as a kit ? can I just buy the Bering by itself ?
many thanks and Salute

The best option is the LN Engineering Retrofit or the Solution. I've just had the Retrofit done on my Boxster at an Independent Porsche servicer. It's a one day job for the Retrofit, and it just involves taking the transmission off to get access to the bearing, so the costs are not too high.

Problem: IMS Failure. Solution: IMS Retrofit
