I'm about to buy a 2011 P31 (Canadian spec) and need a quick question answered. Does the Canadian spec 2011 have TPMS or does it monitor the tire pressure off the ABS system? Ordering a winter package right now from Tire Rack, and need to know quickly if I need the TPMS sensors or not...

Thanks in advance.

Canadian C 63s use the ABS sensors (no TPMS).

Thanks for the reply! Verified it with the service manager shortly before I saw your post...

I left a deposit on an obsidian '11 P31 with the intent of trying to sell my SRT-8 Jeep privately AND procure winter tires and rims in the next two weeks. Solved the wheel/tire issue today. If the Jeep doesn't sell in two weeks, I'll take the trade-in the dealership offered me... Although, I'm so excited about the C63 that I'm tempted to eat the money I could potentially get by selling privately and take her home as soon as my winter rubber gets here next week.

I'd been waffling for a few months as to what to do - so when the dealership had a non-P31 demo with Sottozeros on it, I jumped at the chance to test drive it on some AWFUL icy and snowy roads. 20 minutes later, I was sold - like Benyl has said repeatedly, if you can drive, this car can handle all but the very worst winter weather.

It's been almost 4 years since I sold my '01 C230 Coupe and I can't wait to get back into Benz quality and comfort.
