'95 C280, 71K miles, non-starmarked, i'm the second owner. service experience care-of world wide motors, indianapolis. wire harness crapped-out took a module and an actuator with it. total bill ~$4000.

SPOM (MB factory rep.) official judgement: I get NO cost break what-so-ever. He says it is a judgement call and his to make. Says he can't control what other SPOMs might do, but he is not giving me a break.

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys....before i told them that i wanted the part, the diagnostic conclusion was that mice had chewed on the harness!!!!

After I drive the wheels off of this one, I AM CERTAINLY CHANGING BRANDS.
