Engine TBO & IFR flying - new rules comming?

Hello all!

I talked to someone who said that there are new rules coming which will make it not allowed to fly IFR with a engine overhauled more than 12-years ago (which is the Lycoming recomendation). Apparently these rules are supposed to become effective this spring.

True or not?

I have Googled but didn't find anything, so I posted this thread. Anybody got the lowdown on this issue?

I have a engine overhauled 17 years ago but with only 450 hours on it and in perfect condition. So it would be very annoying if it was true!

But perhaps this is only true for commercial use?

Thanks for any input on where to find the EASA texts on this!
