Another survey--IMS failure

[rick3000]

The problem with an online survey is that your going to get bias results. People who have never had a problem with there car have no reason to google boxster forum and come here, while someone with a problem (say an engine failure) is much more likely to google their problem and come here. Which means that your going to get a lot more people with engine failures posting than people who don't have problems.

There have been something like 200k Boxster's sold worldwide, if you look at all the forum failures reported your still no where near a significant number of failures, even though they shouldn't be happening in the first place.

Also, IMS is very, very rare on pre-'01 Boxsters due to the updated IMS in those and latter cars. But the pre-'01's tend to have more RMS.
