Do either one of you have extended warranties? Is it all the time or only in the mornings untill completly warm. when the earlier production 230 chassis they have two different front covers, where the idler pully mounts to, its either cast or machined, if its machined your ok. if its cast, its been known to cause excessive squeeking. that reason why i ask. if its under extended warrenty it may be covered, if its not, it might be a pretty penny to repalce for a complete front cover on a 55 will run in the neighborhood of 20hours plus part, must drop the subframe down to get the lower and upper pan off, pull the valve covers, all the other acc. off then the front cover. its pretty involved. but thats worst case senario, if your a loyal customer to your dealer. Have them GOODWILL IT or bluff them with their CSI score
