Don't know about other countries, but in the UK the Brabus D3S unit is sold and fitted by MB dealers as a sort of "approved" accessory. As long as it's fitted before the car has covered 20,000 miles then the warranty on the drivetrain components changes from 3-years unlimited miles to 3-years, 60,000 miles. The rest of the warranty is unaffected. Cost in the UK is circa GBP 1,500.00 + fitting (about 30mins labour). HTH...
