Just so we're clear: I never said that one SHOULD do the IMS. In fact, I opted not to do my own, even though it's the model with the highest risk of failure.
I was simply pointing out that there is, in fact, a company that makes a tool to service the IMS bearings for the motors that people say cannot be serviced.
I have nothing against Jeff. I know he has more Porsche knowledge in his pinky finger than I do in my whole body. I was just factually correcting some of his comments so people who read this don't get misinformation. He said those engines have the "non serviceable IMS bearing, period." But in fact, it is serviceable. A company makes a tool for that. If one wants to it's up to them, although I wouldn't. Another time he claimed that the IMS Solutions is the only permanent solution. I pointed out it only had a 5 year warranty, and there's another company that also claims to have the permanent solution, with the same warranty.
If we're here to give people information, let's not limit them to just some of the information. Let's give them everything we can.
