service it or leave it alone? - C32 SC
I currently have 177k miles on the clock on a 2002 C32. To my knowledge there has never been a fluid change in the supercharger. Everything under the hood is a little whinier than I think it should be. Power steering pump, A/C pulley, transmission, and S/C are all suspicious when I am considering the operating noise. It's not deafening but it is concerning.
Question: at this point (177k miles) will I stand to potentially lose more by a S/C oil change than I stand to gain?

It's for lubricating the gears in the front of the SC only, the rotors are dry and the rear is dry so I would do it if it has not been done.
I'd also service your transmission regardless, the 722.6 is a beefy unit and should be fine with a service at your mileage if it's never been done.
