All the other standard maintenance is documented for the car. Question: Now that the IMS and RMS work has been performed. Will this completely prevent potential future issues associated with those seals? Thanks
I'd like to say yes but a dealer may have been limited to just installing another original stock IMS single row with 2 seals and chrome steel balls. You'll have to post some pics.

I think they performed a Single Row IMS retrofit with a part with a name like "LNE". I can't post pics as I haven't bought it yet.
