W211 E55 Kompressor cut out problems

I have a 2004 E55 with 22K mls.

I have a problem with the Kompressor. If I accelerrate from 70 to 130 it cuts out just before 130.

The first time it happened I did three runs from about 60 to 110. When I wanted to do the forth one I had almost no power.

Now I can't even do two runs without this problem.

This happens at 60 to 80 degrees. I don't think even 80 degree weather should be a problem.

What could be the cause?

Does the dealer know how to fix it? Do I need a new Kompressor or should I insist on a new one?

Thank you,

Oliver

The short answer is that it is probably an intercooler water pump failure.
