S600 W140 differential replace cost?
so week ago I bought a car of my dream, 98' S600.
168k mi, but in pretty good condition.
took it to the dealership for a free diagnose, they checked and said nothing urgent needs to be done, just some recommendations list of total ~$12k wow and yeah welcome to Mercedes world
later same day, I pressed the gas to the bottom, wwrrrrRRROOOmmm! after 2 sec in the back under the trunk heard boomzz!-babah!-krsh-kr-krkr-kr-kr.....
and no connection between the transmission and the wheels, even when I put on "parking"
the kr-kr-kr-kr noise is heard even when just rolling
so obliviously there is no differential as is. but not 100% sure, I'm not a mechanic.
I got it towed to my place.
so my question is, how much it would cost to replace the differential, parts and labor?
