Hi All,
Just got my car back from the specialist after having the water pump changed as it was leaking. I asked him to take a look at the supercharger pulley as I could hear a little rattle and he has confirmed the supercharger coupler has failed (spring no longer tight). It's a 2016 V6S with 27,000 miles on it so for it to fail so soon I am a little disappointed to say the least. I am going to try and claim on my RAC warranty for it as I don't think they can say that a internal supercharger component (especially a spring) is a wear and tear item, let alone at 27k miles. Do the new couplers from jag come upgraded in anyway from their older counterparts? I have been steered away from the solid ones by the independent specialist (I can't remember the reason now) but I don't want to have the same thing happen in 2/3 years time?
Thanks!
The usual supercharger rattle...

2016 V6S, Italian Racing Red, black trim kit. Regularly polished to perfection.
How much were you quoted to have it replaced? Keep us posted on how you get on with RAC. Good luck.
