Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am after a bit of advice please. I had my RMS changed at an OPC five months ago and it came with a 12 month guarantee. My 996 has just been into a local indie and they have informed me that my IMS is leaking slightly. Do you think I have any comeback at all with the OPC or are the 2 issues totally unrelated. My indie has told me to go back and stamp my feet. Any thoughts? Many thanks.

POST 2Original post

You should be covered on the 2-year parts warranty. Go back and stanp your feet. I'm not sure how they could tell if it was IMS or RMS though. You can't see either with the gearbox in place, and both drip from the same place.

POST 3Original post

When I had my RMS done at the OPC in December '09 I purposely asked that they replace the IMS housing and seal at the same time. If you did not ask them to repalce the IMS then I cannot see how they should do it do under warranty. Check your bill and see if they did the seal at the same time.
