Finally took my car to the dealer
My coolant light had been on since the mice incident after winter storage, and while the car has been running fine, it would tend to get a bit hot in heavy traffic with the AC on. So I haven't driven it too far from home. I finally took it in because I noticed the fan wasn't running. That was the core issue behind my coolant light. A fuse and breaker later, all is back to normal.
I had been concerned my dealer would re-flash my ECU. Thank God they didn't. They actually seem very competent. They have two techs specializing in Crossfires. They made it a point to come see me when I picked up the car, and complimented me on my engine bay.
My warranty didn't even kick in because the total labor for this almost nothing.
So far, satisfied with this dealer.

You are so Lucky.
Everything my Crossfire Tech knows about the car is from trial and error or discussions with me, he went to school for the car years ago and hadn't seen a 6 until I moved into the area. I don't think that anyone in the service department initially believed me when I discussed the cars liniage. I actually took the service writer out under the hood an pointed to Mercedes part numbers to prove my point. I admit that they are trying to come up to speed and will now go on the Mercedes trouble and repair listing now to find information about the car. It's taken 9 months and two dealerships, but they are removing the supercharger as I type to troubleshoot the long standing slow coolent leak that I have had since purchasing the Roadster.
