after 3 years, 50,000 miles. Of course it happened right after the original warranty ran out. Did anyone else have problems with that?

Good point - I didn't think of that. He probably blew out his welds with too much NAWZZZZZZ.

Now just one GL450 with EORP.
Nope. It's a lump of aluminum with no moving parts. Care to elaborate why it was deemed necessary to replace it?
