Last Month of Factory Warranty on my S211 E55, what to fix?
I'm zoning in on my final month of factory warranty on my 06 E55 wagon, and I want to milk it for all it's worth and try to get every single thing that I haven't thought of fixed. It would be great if you guys could list some common problems that you guys may have had, so that I can take it in and mention it to my dealership.

So far I've done:
-Tranny mounts
-The notorious fuel leak (replaced fuel sender on left side only)
-AC blower

SC bearing, I don't think dealer will do just a bearing if you're lucky you might endup with a whole new clutch.

E55 Wagon, E550 Conv
Find a good independent shop and pay them a $100 buck to pick it apart. They can give you a list and take that to your dealer. FWIW. I would check rear main, valve cover, trans connector, susp. bushings, motor mounts, s/c clutch, and rear diff leaks

good luck - usually the last month of a warranty, everything is fine-tooth-combed ...

be sure it's 'broken' not just 'kindof not working'

Pick a corner and stab the air bladder on the suspension in an inconspicuous place? lol

That is what I did. They denied the SC clutch replacement on my scenario and said it was normal. Not a big deal to me since I will probably go with Sharduls unit when released in the near future
