2003 986S Tiptronic with ~105kmiles
A year ago as I focused on this issue I was pondering the same decision. I fell victim to the "if it's good at 30k it will be good for 230k" myth. Filter analysis had turned up nothing in the summer of 2015. Sure enough in september 2016 my IMS failed. I wish I had indulged my fears and bit the bullet and changed the IMS for a few $ thousand rather than spend 2-3 times that in having a replacement engine installed. With a Tip you are never have the opportunity of a clutch change to prompt you to act and offset part of the cost. You can bet that the replacement engine got a new IMS bearing.
