Anyone on here have an IMS failure with Tiptronic trans?

[Brad Roberts]

Still can't see this is what causes the failures

How about this: it greatly contributes to failures in my area (Los Angeles)

Like I said Brad, I'm not arguing with the engineering side of it. But there are a few realities here that can't be argued with and they have nothing to do with the number of Boxsters I own or have been in contact with. My views have nothing to do with my car.

1. The majority of UK Boxsters will have spent lots of time in traffic routinely tripping that rev range
2. The majority of UK Boxsters haven't suffered IMS failure
3. There's no reason California Boxsters should be any different

Seriously, if you were right about this being a significant contributor to IMS failure it would be total carnage over here in the UK and across Europe for that matter!
