This is not a probability of success.

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 1Original post

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. Please help. I just did oil change on my 2001 boxster, and found some metal particles on the filter. My car had LN engineering IMS bearing updated not long ago. Is this normal wear or IMS bearing failure ? Thank you

POST 2Original post

You should not find any metal. I would have it looked at pronto. Oil analysis etc.

POST 3Original post

Did you get a warranty on the LN bearing install? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
