Please help, slight jolt after complete stop
No matter how gradual/subtle, or how quickly I come to a complete stop, I feel a jolt immediately after it stops. It feels like I get slightly rear-ended, but there's no car behind me. It only happens in sport mode, not comfort or manual. It started happening last week. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

If not, take it to the dealer. Or do it before resetting it. Your call

Thanks for all of your input. I guess you guys were right, it was the shifting from 2nd to 1st. I did the easy ECU reset found here https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...set-works.html
Problem solved.
I hope your car runs better than ever after service Djovovic63.

i thought i read that this wouldn't work on the c63 but if your problem is gone, then it must do something...
i was going to consider unplugging the battery for a while to reset it like from this thread

I've done the sneaky ecu reset before and that never did anything?

I had this issue from the beginning, a small jerk and clunk while in S mode when the car shifts from 2nd to 1st, and also in M mode. Comfort mode obvioulsy does not do this. However, after the car warms up, the jerk/clunk is gone in all modes when going from 2nd to 1st. That is why in the morning I always start out in C mode until the car has warmed up for about 5-8 minutes, then change to S or M and avoid the issue.

now that i think back, i remember having experienced something similar to this... if you're at a stop and you'r in C mode, your car will be in 2nd gear... but if you change it to S or M mode, it'll drop into 1st gear... i remember noticing that when it dropped to 1st gear, the car shook... but now i don't notice it doing it that much... i'm not sure if it has to do with warming up, but it could be...
majority of the time i just drive in C mode since it always resets back to it... and whenever i feel like it, i'll switch it to S or M mode later on.
