I find it hard to believe that Porsche does not have internal records of what bearing went into what 2005 car.
We have never seen any evidence that they do. So, for years, we have had to take cars apart to find out which bearing it was carrying. And in the case of the 2004-2005 cars, we often found bearings that cannot be removed, and ended up removing the rear oil seal on the IMS bearing and calling it a day. Sometimes, you just have to play the hand you have been dealt.........
