    Yup, use a cheap spray bottle and empty the snout the best you can before cracking it open and changing the coupler.
    Here is a nice helpful video on the SC oil change HOW TO CHANGE THE SUPERCHARGER OIL ON A GM 3800 SERIES II V6 - YouTube

    In this video is the part you need to change. EATON M90 (worn coupler) - YouTube

    Probably won't be the bearings but the coupler wears out and causes the marbles in a can sound... It's a $10 part... Bearings are a different story but would probably not need changing! How many miles on car?
