Thumbs down I am really disappointed :(

Guys,

Ive been so hyped lately since I got behind the wheel of my new c63s. eversince, Ive been so happy to drive the car that I've waited for nearly 7 months! However, and with all the disappointment I have one issue that's really getting on my nerves ! The wind noise from the front two windows (driver + passenger). It starts to pickup from 95 kmh and drastically increases with speed! I really cant ignore it, I feel as if the windows are SLIGHTLY down, which creates this wind passing noise! VERY ANNOYING! I took it to the dealer, at first they denied the problem but then told me they would check the door alignment. I got it back yesterday and its even worse .......


Note: my car is a '16 build - Germany.

I do not have that issue so I would suggest returning to the dealer and have them address it for you. Good luck and keep us posted as to its resolution.

its been really common around, as I read so many people have this issue! Its really pathethic, to pay such a high price and at the end of the day, all you hear is wind passing through!

There is an earlier thread on this with information on service bulletin. I had the same issue, went to MB garage with a copy of the SB, and asked them to follow the protocol. No more wind-noise.

Yes, I took the German one, and after the service I noticed they had left an english-version of the SB in my car - thus must exist somewhere in EN. It fixed the problem - there are still certain degree of wind-noise, but nothing comparable to that before.

Even if you can only find it in German, surely there's someone who can translate at the dealer (or, you know, use Google translate).

Bro so u took the german technical service board steps that were uploaded a while ago in another thread? The one written in german? So u bet it would reduce the wind noise by much? Or its not thaaat much a difference before and after?

I already had them do the door alignment again but theres no improvement, I can still hear the pathetic wind noise from 100 km/h onwards!

It took two visits - first time they just tried to align the doors - however with poor results.
Second time, once they followed the SB, this removed the noise. It is clearly better now. Before it was like the window was narrowly open, now it is only normal wind-noise once you pass 80 miles/h.

Sounds good! I hope the same happens to me since i already did the alignment as you did and I hope they can follow the steps in the SB and get over this sound! Thanks for the input bro!
