Hamad, sorry to hear about your problem. I do remember one of the members posting about such a problem but don't remember if it was an SL55 or E55 - search for all the forums and see if the thread comes up.

I had that same problem on my c32. Similar supercharged engine.

It is the throttle actuator or the intercooler pump sometimes they may both go bad.

They fixed both on mine and it actually feels faster than before.

Hope that helps.
