I would NOT fork out that kind of money for a "gurgling" sound unless it was diagnosed as a mechanical problem. When did it gurgle and how loud? My car makes a rhythmic burble at idle, but it's completely acceptable to me. After all, it's a motor with a supercharger on it!
I wonder if the aftermarket will come up with an overhaul kit for our supercharger setup.

MY SC was also replaced under warranty.. MB Starmark warranty definitely covers the SC.. In fact everything I have ever taken my car to the dealer for has been covered under the Starmark warranty.

yeah you may be right... today i took the car for an alignment at a tire shop. When they pulled it out of the garage it was smoking from under the hood. We popped the hood and saw that the engine cover was shattered... it looked like something shot through it.. I called roadside and had them tow it back to the dealer. The dealer hasnt called me about it yet, so i dont know what exactly went wrong.. .

holy ****.. i just noticed the price you paid for your b service.. I have two dealers I use in town.. one dealer charges about $300 out the door with loaner and the other is 475.. but $666 that is just wrong!

Hey Sforza,
They charge $2900 for the SC here in NY I just had mine replaced recently.
Just make sure you replace the pullys and belt and make sure warranty covers that as well and the labor. I did not take my MB to the stealership cuz they'll just rip you off. My mechanic did it in 5 hours and he did an excellent job and the great thing is he specializes in MB and BMW. Remeber the $3800 is only if you give them the core otherwise it would be more like $5000 and remember you're getting a refurbished SC. Good luck !
Yea that $600 sounds right for B service, that's what we pay here in Westchester however I just take it to my mechanic and perform A service only for like $90
