hey joe I just wanted to ask when I looked it says it has P30 and it’s weird cause it’s a 2013 can you please assist on explaining , and does it have all the goodies of the P31 , I saw the titanium manifold and spoiler but the brakes weren’t red they were standard grey brakes , which confused me cause it had the code for red brakes , and with p30 code does it get the forged internals and high performance brakes ? I am genuinely confused and I am supposed to be buying it today so a quick answer would help tons thanks

Valvestud

Regardless of year, the datacards always show "P30". Attached is a page from the 2013 dealer order guide. Please note this is for a coupe, as I can't find one for the sedan, but options should be the same. The "P31" area of the attached shows what comes in the PP for that year. The codes shown are also shown in the datacard. I've also attached the latest card from MB. I can't speak to which internals were used. I would suggest you start a new thread to clarify when and in which models the engine components were "upgraded".

Valvestud

You look for a "P30" code, which this one does not have.

Looking at getting this c63 and want to double check if it has the headbolt issue. It’s a 2012 model year, but just want to be 100% positive. Also not sure if you’re able to see, but does it have the p31 package and/or LSD?

Thanks Joe! @Valvestud

Valvestud

Datacard attached. All 2010 and older, and some early 2011s have old bolts. That would mean yours has new ones. It does have the performance package P30. Ignore the fact that it shows P30 and not P31. It's just the way MB does it. It does not have LSD (option 471).

Can someone please decode this? It's an Edition 1 and I had LSD installed. (I used a black series vin to order the parts) I'm wondering if it's on the sheet now. A local MB dealer did the installation for me.

Just so you understand the datacard is the as built record. As such, you can add/change anything you want from any source, and it won't change the card. Think of it as a birth record when it rolled off the assembly line.

TTA

If the dealer installed an accesory, how will another dealer know down the road what part to order?

Valvestud

They won’t, other than looking at the service info done at a dealership.

TTA

Well, I applied to go on Bring a trailer this morning. Would you mind sending me a copy so I can include it with the car?
Thanks

Hi, wondering if this one is in the problematic head bolt range. It’s a 2011.

Just an FYI, it's possible someone swapped those brakes out on you.
I have first-hand knowledge of a shady High-performance specialty dealer removing parts and replacing them with stock parts to squeeze more cash out of cars they sell.
In my case, they took out a TTF-coded transmission and installed a transmission out of a V6 Monte Carlo and, on another occasion they removed the V8 only world-class T5 trans from a 1 of 100 made T/A and installed the much more common T5 from a V6 before selling the car.
It probably happens more than you think, but this on both occasions were cars I purchased. I was lucky enough to call the dealer out and get my TTF coded trans back before it was off on eBay but that second one took a nation wide parts search to remidy.

For some background on that Transmission (I'm Metal there) please see:

Valvestud

not in the affected group. New bolts.
