Other than the IMS problems, The 96-97-98 and maybe some 99's had the cylinder wall casting porosity problem and the 'D' chunk failure mode, wear a cylinder wall can crack and fall apart. Most of those engines were replaced by Porsche by now. They would rarely last long, but every now and then you would hear someone have it happen again.
By 50,000 miles, you should be clear of that.
