Evening
As a new owner myself I checked loads of internet buff about Ims bearings some good some bad & after taking months of looking for my C4s I found one from a Porsche specialist without the Ims being updated. After a long chat with the owner of the garage I decided that I would buy the car & with a good warranty happily collected. The car had a full service oil change filters etc on collection & drives really well as it should as its a 70k car 3 owners. Anyway I again went to a couple of Porsche specialist to seek advice on the bearings & was basically told the same thing drive the car enjoy it & bring it back after another 5k but for peace of mind I had another oil change done on the car & got the guys to check the filter ( all clear ). Ive now found a fantastic specialist who looks after the car, knows his stuff very honest guy so fingers crossed happy driving, ive been informed that the bearing will make noises before its goes anyway so that's the time to stop the car & replace.
