That sounds bad. Maybe you'll get the updated supercharger. It is disappointing that these units are going bad at relatively low mileage.

Actually, I believe it's 120k. I'm at 17k and still no rattle. I'm sure it's coming at some point, though.

The warranty is extended to 120k after the replacement is done.

Mine failed at 4k. They did a motor tear down just to make sure the shrapnel didn't cause any internal issues. They just pulled down to a short black to check the piston's.
