Hi,
You should send this off to get an oil analysis. They will not only tell you what the particles are but what would cause them.

Hi, sorry to hear about the water issue. I had a boxster that was totalled because water got into the car. I'm not aware of any drain inside the car. The hole that got clogged on my 986.2 was in the convertible well. When the top is up in the 'maintenance' position, you should see the drain (on the right side) of the well. When this gets clogged, the water spills into the car.

Based on all the info i have read, you can't determine the ims being used from an external examination. Only a tear down. It is pretty doubtful that a 2000 has a double row bearing since the majority were only placed in 1999. Also, if the engine was replaced, whatever ims bearing that was available at that time was used. So, it could be one of three types.

Hi Shrek,
It was my experience that new bolts came with the updated coil packs. Size might be a mute point unless you received some and it didn't come with it.
