The IMS portion was changed in MY06 such that you had to disassemble the engine to do the retrofit, rather than being able to do it from the outside. The basic IMS design was still the same, and still continued to fail, until the completely redesigned engine came out in around 09(?). The new engine may have its own problems - we'll see.
