And now you're scared to death about the IMS? IMHO I think anywhere near 20% failure rate is ridiculous.

You can get up to MY05 with the ability to retrofit the IMS without disassembling the engine, so include in your purchase calcs $3500 to replace it and the RMS and your clutch, then don't worry and just DRIVE!
