IDM - Maybe I am cheating, but I think others would.... Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() |
do the same. I still haven't received my IDM Recall letter but went ahead and made an appointment for replacement next week anyway. Just to be on the safe side I verified the S/N on my original IDM (used for 80,000 miles then carried in the trunk as a spare for the past 86,000 miles), as well as the IDM now firing my sparkplugs.
I got a little surprise! The original IDM fell within the approved S/N range for replacement, but just barely with a low D series S/N. The engine mounted IDM had an E series number and clearly fell outside the range of approved units for replacement.
Well, I think you can all guess what task I just completed in the garage. The D series unit is back on the engine after 3+ years and the newer (but slightly more used) E series unit is in the trunk.
