'05 C2, 32K miles, no IMS failure. Had to have the clutch done at 30K (previous owner must have really abused it...I bought it with 21K and the pedal was always much too stiff, mechanic said it had much too much wear for the mileage) so I had them put in the LN retrofit. Mechanic showed me the original bearing and said it was perfect, took the seal off and showed me the grease was intact and clean.

Good for you..... especially since you don't have an Internediate Shaft (IMS) in your car.
