I have a 2000 2.7 with a build date in August of 2009 and have been told that even for a car that was produced so soon after the development of the single row bearing, there is no way of knowing which bearing was used without removing the transmission and inspecting it.
The bottom line is that, even though I have installed a magnetic drain plug, change the oil every 3- 4000 miles and inspect the oil and filter for particles and debris, I still intend to replace the IMS bearing when the clutch needs replacement. Considering the much better reliability on the double row bearings, the question is whether it would be preferable to install a new factory double row bearing, rather than an aftermarket one. Does anyone know if the double row bearings are still available?
