That is what the PPI from a good Porsche shop can tell you after they inspect, and drive the car.
Remember, here on RL we have the famous 51 modes of failure guys. IMSB is only one.
Rather than get a whole lot of speculation have the car inspected by a Porsche Indy shop that can answer these questions.
In general, 1999 C4S 996 is a good car. But its a 20 year old 130k mile car that depending on use, maintenance and overall condition could be a money pit or a great buy.
PPI borescope, drop sump plate, cut open oil filter, review all previous service records is a start.
Which shop did the IMSB? Which bearing? How long ago? Was the shop certified or preferred LN shop?
