Hi to all, I am doing some research of owning my first 911 years 2002-2004 with manual transmission. I own many Alfa Romeo's and work on them very often. I have few questions to ask: The biggest issue that I heard is with the IMS bearing. Are there any symptoms to look for. Any specific years to stay away from. What are the most important issue to look for i.e rear main seal etc.... Thanks in advance and looking forward to get my first Porsche. Giorgio

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.
