A well known issue......
I thought I must add, in relation to the thread on 6.9 valve timing and performance, that I have not yet driven either 6.9 more than 20km per occasion - I seem to spend so much time working on the cars I'm usually too tired to drive them. Well there is more to it than that - in the case of the red AMG, it was an excellent well cared for car, but had a couple of basic issues that precluded driving it, the first of which was the rock hard spheres - the first thing I sorted out last year.
There remains the issue of a horrendous drive line vibration that occurs under hard acceleration - under modest throttle its smooth and happy. Without actually investigating, I'm guessing flex disc, and this has actually made me too nervous to really drive the car.
Its on the menu of things to do, just time, time, time.
