AMG GTS. Act "slow"
Hi.
I just got my 2016 GTS today (my first AMG) and on the way home from the dealer it drive very good and reacted very fast and the car was fast as hell. But this evening it is like it has lost power. Its acting like it is only running on 60% of what is should. I have tried every mode (C, S, S+) and the car sounds like is should, but it is acting slower than it should. Not the best experience from day 1 :-(
I drove back to the dealer and they put a tester on and it all looked fine, but the car still runs "slower".
The car is still under warranty and they will get the car next week to run a bigger diagnostic, but i could use some input from you guys also.
Any ideas?

Did you put gas in the car that might not be from a Tier 1 outlet?
Bottom line for me is: if it's driving markedly different one day versus the next, something has changed and needs to be checked at the dealership.
Good luck and keep us informed!

Problem solved.
Went to the AMG dealer today and they deleted the software and reinstalled it, and then updated it. Now it is good again
They told me that they have seen this issue before with other AMG models (not specially the GTS) but on other AMG models also. And they did not know what caused it.
But i am happy again
