Default Me, the Machbx 911 C4, Judge Alex and the IMSB

Bc of my cute little 911 - I got to be on Judge Alex - and got to talk to a real, expert Porsche tech who was my expert witness from LA. After the show - I wanted to ask just one question - "What did he think about the IMSB issue w the 996 & 986?" He said is a known issue. Replace it. So we can a all quit wondering now. {you're welcome}

I'm biting too - obviously it wasn't about the IMSB itself. What did it?

I bought from a schister. Lucky I got my 3500 in repairs paid for. More importantly, I got the dreaded IMSB question answered from a Porsche NA expert

I always wondered, do the participants get paid to be on those shows - or do they waive court fees?

So don't - and since you don't know what you are talking about I think OFF is the general direction ...

Nope - they found me bc I have a claim in small claims court. Of course, silly me - I just thought someone might like to know what Porsche NA says about the IMSB. But I really don't care what YOU do with you own

Bunch of bitchy little girls Always whining that PNA won't say anything about the IMSB... Well, I had no trouble talking about it in depth - but that was on my own time. So

This entire thread is confusing. If I understand correctly - machbx sued PCNA over the intermediate shaft bearing issue and ended up on a "television court" program? Is that correct? And from the sound of it, you won based on testimony from a Porsche expert witness? What did you win?

Or was this while thing sarcastic? I'm confused...
