I wish the dealer would give me another brand of machine.
They are still German engineered as the Viking has their own Swedish engineers but are made in the same factory in Sweden. Yes the Pfaff 5.0 CV had issues; it was a commonly known thing and the Pfaff 5.5 CV has resolved and taken care of them all. I read somewhere that buying a 5.5 is even better than the upgrade to 5.5 from a 5.0 but that even helps. Got that first hand from a sewing teacher at local Pfaff dealer.
