Recall on the 63 engine

Today my SA told me there was 2 recalls on the ML63, both for the engine, one is for a oil return line on the left bank and the other on the intake manifold. Anyone else?

I guess MB really did clean up the American factory after the W163, first recall on the truck is for a part NOT made in American but in Germany :P

Question Only Ml63 or others too

Do you know if the recall was for only the ML or for the other 63 models as well?

Sorry I don't have that info, my SA didn't specify whether it's ML63 only or all 63 engines.

Yes, those 2 were the exact ones that I received.
