Leaking Head Gaskets
I was told my Tony at Euroelites that leaky headgaskets are a common problem with the e55. I was just wondering if any of you have gotten such a repair from the dealer and if it was covered under factory warranty or extended warranty. I am taking my car in the morning to Mercedes and I am just wondering what to exepect tpo. Thanks!

I have yet to see any M112 V6 or M113 V8 have a leaking head gasket in my time as a merc technician.

Same here. I think he meant valve cover gaskets. Those are fairly common.

Valve Cover Gaskets
I think Tony was also referring to the Valve Cover Gaskets. This most certainly is a very common problem.
