New to the club

hey guys just joined the club... purchased an 03 silver E55 fully loaded had it for about 4 months. supercharger was shutting off and i didnt like that it was over 48g's and no nav. so traded it in for a 04 midnight blk e55 with nav. red seat inserts, cooling seats, trunk closer, rear shade, suade headliner, parktronic, keyless go, (for those who even care) lol, blk grill and amg logo hood ornament is on its way, and im getting the car back tomorrow from a local shop that does custom body work. getting medium smoked lights in the back and dark smoked side markers. its gonna look nice.... thinking about sending it in to a kleeman shop for the k1 package what u guys think? thanks

What's up Dom,
yeah I had the same problem with s/c shutting off which was not pleasant. The dealer replaced the i/c pump and it's running strong ever since.
