Pothole, when I had my PPI the mechanic ran checks on everything while I remained. Once all else was well, he did (and I payed for) an oil/filter change - even though it had only 4000 km since the last one, and he cut open the filter and inspected it. If the oil had just been changed, I would have asked to have the pan dropped. Either way, I was aware of the IMS bearing issues and decided to include that as part of the PPI.

It added very little money to the cost of a PPI and gave me some additional
confidence and peace of mind. Many of us (including me) cut open the filter after each oil change, so why wouldn't you include that in your PPI?
