Porsche IMS Bearing Service In Winter Park, FL

Eurotech German Car Service, Winter Park, FL - Porsche IMS Bearing

Welcome to Eurotech German Car Service in Winter Park, FL, your trusted destination for top-quality automotive care, specializing in servicing luxury German car brands like Porsche. One crucial area of concern for Porsche owners is the IMS (Intermediate Shaft) bearing, a component known for potential failure, leading to significant engine damage. At Eurotech, we understand the importance of addressing this issue proactively to ensure the longevity and performance of your prized Porsche.

All model years 1997 through 2008 with the M96 or M97 engine for Boxster®, Cayman®, and 911® are affected by the IMS bearing concern. In the Porsche® M96 and M97 flat-six engines, the Intermediate Shaft (IMS) is just below the crankshaft with the IMS Bearing positioned at the far end facing the transmission. The IMS Bearing is similar to an axle bearing in that it is a sealed unit containing steel bearings and a permanent lubricant. The seals and the lubricant inside the IMS Bearing are intended to last for the life of the engine, but there is an issue in these models with the potential for deterioration, which can lead to extensive engine damage.

When Should You Get Porsche IMS Bearing Service?

If your Porsche is a model year between 1997 and 2008 with the M96 or M97 engine for Boxster®, Cayman®, and 911®, it is essential to address the IMS bearing issue proactively.
