From what I've heard from C63 owners, read on this forum, and experienced myself with an E, no difference track or dyno.

I'll have to ask..Only reason I bring this up is watching a P31 dyno a few weeks back, no mods, car had about 3,000 mi. It put down about 425whp and 380 tq, which is what I've seen K1 cars put down on the same dyno. You'd think MB would consider it, easy way to make some $$$, profit margin would have to be huge. Maybe they lose some P31 sales, but some guys just want the tune instead of all that other stuff.

Dyno mode accessed by the following, i think it's on youtube somewhere.
1. Insert key, turn to first click.
2. Hold call answer button, then press OK.
3. Self explanatory menu should appear.
I tried this and the YouTube version and nothing happens. Is there a difference with keyless go?

Hi FBTO, nice meeting you on Sunday. You try taking off the Keyless-Go button (it comes out like a key) and insert your key to test it out just to eliminate a variable.

I tried it with a keyless go and couldn't get it to work either, not sure what the deal is. It does work with non-keyless go.

What you say makes complete and total sense to me, however I'm sure MB see's it the opposite way. They're like the Fed, packaging the HP we want together with other options we may not want, just to get more $.

Yes the button comes off just like how a key would come out.

I was in the Stock Tenorite Grey C63
