Not a big deal, but just had the intake manifold gasket fix repaired under warranty. A fairly common problem for this model year. After driving the C250 loaner for several days, getting back in the C63 was like falling in love all over again.

Mine would be the infamous head bolt issue...20k later and a big thanks to MB Canada for paying the bill. That would caused big problems if it wasn't under warranty

Sounds like you might need to consider trading it in before the warranty runs out. That's my plan at this moment--don't really want to do that, though.

45k miles. 4 stuck fuel injectors kept driving they just stayed wide open. finally when the car did die trying to restart it hydrolocked the motor. luckily the starter motor didn't have enough power to bend internal parts of the cylinders that were full of fuel. complete top of the engine tear down no bent parts were found all fuel injectors and fuel rails were replaced. Car was at mercedes for about a month. then traded 2 weeks later.
