Please feed back when they tell you what it is. I'd be surprised if it was your IMS bearing. _________________ 2000 Manual 996 C4 Arctic Silver Convertible

Possibly so, the IMS bearing may be goosed, but it may not be the cause of the problem. Could have had a jammed valve or something that then put too much strain on the chains and bearing causing them to also fail. _________________ 2000 Manual 996 C4 Arctic Silver Convertible
