Just to be safe, attach a remote microphone to the engine case as close as possible to the IMS. Then hook it up to a receiver inside the car. That way you can listen to the shaft spinning the entire trip and you will hear any abnormalities

Haha!! Normally I would have but I didn't know what would happen if I tried to carry on my Flex. The TSA might have gone nuts. I made sure that most of my traveling was at night so nobody could see my filthy Porsche.

Where do i send the $100 check to buy this thing? Isn't this all they are worth to those who are trying to drive prices down?
Drive it, you will hurt it's feeling by not.

Given the amount of paranoia and idiocy in o/p's posts, I can only postulate he's financially stretching himself to own it to begin with.

The top ten things to do with a car you are afraid to drive:
10: Cut the roof off and plant flowers
9: Store your old magazine collection in it
8: Become a reviewer for battery maintainers
7: Chart the changes in oil composition in a car that is never started.
6: Check measurements of tire flat spots every week.
5: Make the frunk a wet bar
4: Sit in the drivers seat grip the wheel and make vroom vroom noises.
3: Enjoy telling your plight to web forums.
2: Never have to clean brake dust off the wheels.
and the number one???
