Getting a new engine

So long story short, Mercedes is replacing my engine under warranty. Is there anything you guys recommend doing or something I should be worried about? My service advisor said it was a best case scenario to remedy the issue I was having.

First, why are you getting a new engine?

It’s hard to give specific advice with no information... can you provide some context?

Yeah when the spark plug broke back in may pieces of it must have entered into the engine. Drove it around for a while and it damaged it internally. So new engine time! They said it’s brand new not rebuilt engine so that’s nice, I hope. Probably going to have to have a break in period.

My car also misfired shortly after wrist pin repair. They had to replace one of the ignition coils. Engine runs amazing. So happy with the wrist pin repair. Car just pulls and is so smooth.
