IMS is problematic for both high and low mile cars albeit for different reasons.
High mile cars face wear and tear on their suspensions and drive train. Low mile cars face issues with aging seals and the like.
If it were me, I go low miles, replace the IMS with and IMS Solution and keep it for the long term. Part costs are your enemy and labor costs if you're not a wrench turner. With low mile cars you avoid many high price parts that need R&R.
