who is still on their original IMS?

[RedTele58]

Jake,

'99 Boxster, 2.5 engine, 5-speed, 61,xxx miles, Mobile 0-40. I'll do the IMS when I do the clutch, whenever that day comes. I don't worry much about the IMS on an earlier car.

'00 Boxster, 2.7 engine, 5-speed, 81,xxx miles, Mobile 0-40. She's a street, autoX, DE car and semi-daily driver. She'll get a clutch later this spring and I'll have the IMS done at that time. Although I don't worry much about the IMS in a MY 2000 car, since I drive her hard, I'll do the IMS as preventive maintenance.

'01 Boxster S, 3.2 engine, 6-speed, 32,xxx miles, Mobile 0-40. She's a garage queen, and for that reason I had the IMS done as soon as I bought her. The bearing showed no wear, but better safe than sorry on a low-mileage '01 car.

'02 Boxster S, 3.2 engine, 6-speed, 72,xxx miles, Mobile 0-40. She'll get an IMS when she gets a new clutch - probably w/in the next year. She only gets a couple thousand mile/year since I bought her, and I want to be conservative w/ the IMS on a '02.

nice to see a good many boxes still on the first ims. I just drive the car as it should and dont sorry. So earlier cars are better, and does anyone think if man or auto would affect ims life.
