Hey,

My brother is graduating law school and the fam is thinking of getting him an 03+ CL600... one question though, do the turbochargers 'wear out' or have to be replaced nearing a certain mileage? Also, wouldn't this be covered in a warranty?


Thanks,

MM

 

I never heard of the turbochargers wearing out on the CL but the CL does have a lot of mechanical issues. Please purchase aftermarket warranty, it is essential.


Cheers,

Adam

 

Just wasn't sure if it was like a supercharger... (I think?)

Thanks for the reply...

 

your turbo chargers will not wear out during your ownership

 

You welcome, the M275/M275 AMG engines are very reliable.

Yep, the engine will be the least of your problems.

There were some early problems but they've been pretty much sorted out even on early models. The failing ignition coil packs have been replaced by now.

But expensive electrical and suspension issues will flare up now and then, so the advice to be covered should be heeded.

 

Nope, boith sets of ignition coil packs went south on my CL600 about a month ago.
