C32AMG M-Mode

Question for you guys, I spoke with a gentleman who has Manual Mode on his C32, He informed that I also can have the ECU tune if upgraded.

He stated that this was a rare option because it was around 1400 euro back in the days... BUT he was was able to make copy of the TCU and can help C32 owners to get this option .


Here is a short Clip


Lastly, he stated " You purchase a Standard C32 TCU box and I reprogram it with the M-mode software that I copy from my car. I'll ship it to the client and the new TCU is just plug&play"

Is this True or a Scam? Can people even copy TCU/ECU software? If so I definitely will be adding this option.

My gearbox shifts gear in redline, so EC is not true manual.


I also have another TCU software witch have true manual, no automatic gear shifts.


So the answer is yes.

This is interesting. I always wanted that for my C32 (sadly sold the car) as I liked the true manual of the C55. Unlike the "M" in the C63 which auto downshifts as you slow down.

Yo bruv!

I just saw that same guy’s video on YouTube about true Manual mode and I hit him up he wants 300€ For the TCU file.

I was curious if you ever ended up getting a reprogrammed TCU from him?

It’s taking every ounce of sense I have to not buy one from him right this instant.

“My miiiiind is telling me nooooo,
but my bodyyyy...
my bodyyyy’s telling me yessssss!!”

My C55 downshifts as I slow down as well and won't let you get into all gears at low speeds, 5th is available @ 35mph and up, 4th is 30mph and up, 3rd is 25mph and up and 2nd is not selectable from a stop and only available once you start rolling. Sadly it doesn't revmatch automatically but this is one of the few automatic cars where you can do it manually.

I have the Eurocharged tcu tune and it has true manual mode. It will bounce off redline and not shift.

Sorry for the sick lag. Not sure about the German dude. But my guy from the YouTube vid is from Russia. He posted the 3 minute video of him ragging the ***** off his C32 in manual mode. Bounces off redline a handful of times. I commented on his video and asked if I could get one and it really is the bees knees
