There is a lot of speculation on IMS this and IMS that. Long story short, yes. the repair is up to you and you don't have to do it, the failure rate is low. (Higher for single row). These engines have a whole bunch of "modes of failure ". You could do the IMS and then the next day have your AOS take your engine out.
