Question regarding the Turbochargers
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

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 The failing ignition coil packs have been replaced by now.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.
