Hi,
I am trying to find out which IMS bearing is in my 2005 Boxster S 3.2 and have read on Pistonheads that the smaller single row bearing was used in engines up to engine No. 62504095 and the larger bearing after then. My engine number is roughly 3000 beyond this (62507803) and am hoping someone can confirm the above is correct which means I have the larger bearing and don't need to worry so much about failure.
Also I have read that some engine numbers start with 61, supposedly signifying it is a "series 1" engine and those starting 62 are "series 2". Can anyone confirm this and if so, what are the differences?
Thanks in anticipation.
Paul
