^ actually you'd be surprised how many people were unaware of the pitfalls of driving at low RPMs in the wrong conditions. I've been on this forum and others for years and the possibility of this type of driving being linked to IMS failure is seldom if ever discussed unless you follow a more technical forum like Renntech.

I don't think you'll ever prove anything when it comes to these engines... like whether 10K oil change intervals are worse than 7K or letting your oil come up to temp will lead to a longer running engine. There are doubts about everything including Porsche's most recommended oil. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered.
