Coil pack issues but nothing since updated parts installed and had a coolant leak from the crossover. Other than that, really nothing to note. Just lots of power and silky smooth engine. I've had two of these engines with over 200k combined miles so I do have some experience.

Besides abc components and coil packs...others are cheap to diy. Valve cover gaskets are brittle overtime causing oil seeps into spark plugs housing and misfire occurs. So replace that along with plugs. Keep abc fluid fresh as well as filter to keep the and system happy. I spent 3 grands just this summer to do all the work myself including updated abc pump, 24 plugs, Valve cover gaskets, 2 high pressure hoses, all accumulators, chf11 fluid, set of sls amg wheels, new air filter and cabin filters, brake fluid flush and coolant flush. A lot of work car runs like new now.
