C63 p31 help

Hello I own a 2011 c63 p31 with 28k miles I just bought this for 40k out the door I know it had the head bolt replaced at 14 k or 18k miles I just want confirmation is if this is how the motor should sound, sometimes on start I hear a flap but it's also straight piped and velos tuned the flap sounds like it comes from. The exhaust under the bottom drivers side. Also when I drive from 1 to 3k I hear a clicking noise I'm very afraid of the head bolt problems even though it had them replaced I can't seem to find an answer for the clicking it doesn't click while review just driving and it's faint but noticeable to me.


Don't mind the metal clicking that's my dog tags but in the very beginning u can hear the noise

I have the same noise on mine, also that whining/gear noise that yours has. Any update on what the issue is?

Perhaps better to post in the AMG w204 section.

FWIW I have a C63 and it does not have any ticking/clicking (...yet) regardless of outside temp (-35C to +35C). Sounds like lifters though.

Are you throwing any CEL codes?
