So i bought a 2002 C4S, 29,000 miles. The PPI stated there was some RMS seepage. So negotiated that in the price, prepared to do it.
Question 1: Do I/Should I do it immediately, or clean it and keep an eye on it and do it in a few months?
Question 2: What else should i do, since the labor is in removing transmission etc as i can see.
a. IMS seal replacement
b. New clutch
c. anything else?
I'm torn on the LNE IMS replacement. that being said, there is an IMS seal that could just be replaced, right?
Clutch may be early, but while it's out, i could be ensured that it's new and will last. What all should i replace with the clutch, throw out bearing and all?
I got a price on the RMS replacement, any thoughts on what each one of the additional items should add to that job would be appreciated.
Thanks, i've tried to search and research, but couldn't come up with a good conclusive answer.

Hi,
What specifically would you ask a dealer/private shop to find out if they have the latest tool to install the RMS in the latest method (recessed more or something?)
thanks,

RMS replacement - what else at same time
in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)

Is there a bearing for both the RMS and the IMS or just the IMS? And the thought for the IMS is if i decide not to do the LNE version, still do an OEM IMS bearing?
