Exclamation Motor mount bulletin expanded to the S500

The bulletin about a ticking noise on light to moderate acceleration at low speeds caused by the motor mounts on the CLK500, E500, and SL500 has just been expanded to include the 2003 S500 as well.

The bulletin only applies to the 5.0 liter V8 models. You may be hearing a different noise.
