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.
2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.
0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.
0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Looking for a 997, but want to avoid the IMS issue. The 997 M97 IMS was a larger unit than the predecessor and requires engine assembly to replace. I believe that the whole IMS design was removed sometime in 2008 or 2009. Does anyone know the exact time? Was it based on the model year 2008 or 2009? Can the engine number be of use in determining whether there is the IMS or not? Thanks.
When they moved to the DFI engine in 2009 they designed out the IMS. Mike
