I agree with Jeff. The old style camshaft chain tensioners (in air cooled cars) would fail with destructive results, the same as the IMS bearing. Porsche redesigned the system with pressure fed tensioners and failures went down. There are a number of remedies to this problem. You choose the one that works best for you and then monitor it every time you change oil.
