Porsche IMS Bearing Failure Explained

Intermediate shaft bearing failure (dual row type) dissected on video from a Porsche Boxster with a 2.5 liter M96 horizontally-opposed six cylinder engine.

Replacement of the IMS bearing should be done as part of preventative maintenance. LN Engineering was the first and original IMS bearing replacement. Four patents and over 30,000 installations strong, LN Engineering's ims bearing replacements are the most trusted. Before you go ahead with changing your IMS bearing and installing an IMS Retrofit or IMS Solution, it's important to pre-qualify your engine. Not every engine can or should have the bearing changed, especially if the original bearing is failing or has failed.
