2008 s63 need help
I have a 2008 s63 with 89k went to start it up the other day and was sputtering about 500-1000k rpm I shut it off smelled like fuel and a little smoke,took it to a very reputable Mercedes tech he checked it out and said the timing chain jumped and no compression in two cylinders looking at 8-11k to fix anybody heard of this problem and any suggestions would be great

Sorry to hear that brother 
I personally haven't heard of this happening but I would encourage you to get a second opinion from another reputable and independent shop. Not saying your guy is wrong, simply making sure he is right before you're having to dump $10k on the fix. Good luck and keep the thread updated.
