Hi All!

[Jimt]

I've been bitten by the MB bug - I bought an E55 Kompressor...

...love it! I haven't smiled this much for ages!

And this is despite having the intercooler pump fail just 1 month after buying the car. Hope it's the only problem I'll have for a while - how reliable are these cars?

Welcome to the forum.

Congrats on the purchase, i'm sure you won't have any regrets.

There is quite a few E55 AMG owners on this forum, so they'll be able to give you an honest answer on the reliabilty side of the E55 and any other questions you may have.

Anyway post some pics and enjoy the beast!

Welcome to the forum, looking forward to seeing some pics of your E55.

The IC pump is a common failure on the Kompressor AMG cars. Otherwise they are very reliable. Make sure you get the ATF changed too.

What about Warranty?

OK what do you guys reckon about the Tier 1 warranty?

At £1100/year I reckon I might gamble that the repair bills will be less

Views?
