Owner complaint summary

My check-engine light recently illuminated, and diagnostic testing identified fault code P06DA00, relating to the oil pump control valve circuit. I have been quoted over $5,000 to replace the oil control valve and oil pump harness. I was quoted the following by Mercedes Servuce in Manchester, NH- Oil Pressure Regulator Valve: need to remove lower oil pan only to access oil control valve and replace the valve and sub harness. $5013.52. This is a known issue. My vehicle has been well maintained, and I have been advised that it is otherwise in excellent mechanical condition. I intend to keep and drive this vehicle for many more years, which makes it particularly disappointing to encounter a repair of this magnitude for a component that is not considered a routine maintenance or wear item.
