I’m just learning about the IMS bearing issue. Do to the low mileage, I’m going to go ahead and have the replacement bearing installed.
Porsche dealerships quoted me any wares from $3,900 - $4,600.
Is this amount inline with what others have paid?

Thanks
It is if it includes a clutch and flywheel as well as new RMS. You might want to get a quote from a good independent Porsche mechanic since dealers normally charge a lot more than independents.
