Dr Cool . I have a most effective solution for you and your customers . I did encounter that issue in both of my Gl450 and I found a good working solution . See if you place it in vertical position like you did show us it will last a little more but , The leaking will continue if you don't fix it and water will continue to go down to that compartment and humidity will find the way to penetrate the Rear Sam through the little venting windows it has all around the box and the humidity will set down and will destroy the Sam internally anyhow . So what I did and what I propose is as follow . Take the Sam and place it in a table , find a flat screwdriver and pressed down the sides of the sam to be able to opened . ones you was able to open the sam and was able to see the electronic board , spray the whole board with electronic silicon, don't be scared, silicon will protect the circuit , then place some sort of clear tape closing all the vents , the sam does not need those vents believe me , done it and worked . after taping all the vents put it back together and that's it . working sam forever .

Hi, I have a W221. My battery keeps requiring me to jumpstart the car. At times, it will not start and there wont be any signs of life on the dash. Then after sometime, it will start with no jumpstarting. At times, I'll be driving and the dash lights and electricals will flicker on and off on the dash and the car will want to go off but the car continues driving as long as I dont stop it. I also noticed that while sitting in the car when its quiet, I hear a buzzing noise that comes from the rear left side of the car. Could this be an issue going on with the rear sam?

If the rear SAM gets wet and one starts having electrical problems, would it work after drying it out or does one have to buy new SAM? I use a W164 2011 GL450.
