We're recommending to check the bearing in four to five years or 50-60k miles as a precaution, as we've only had our ceramic bearings in service for about three years now. To date, we've had zero issues or failures of the ceramic bearings or any retrofit kits and prior evidence would suggest that there should be zero issues with the bearings provided.

It is our plan to re-evaluate this recommendation in another year or two and we expect our IMS solutions to be permanent fixes not requiring replacement during a reasonable lifetime of an M96/M97 engine.
