Hey, Joe!

Do you still have access to the data card of the cars?

I'm watching an e63 that gonna be auctioned within a week and they have the pic of VIN tag... The car is 2011, but it says manufactured/ delivered November of 2010... so, is it considered the group of risk? below is the vin:

"WDDHF7HB9BA355834"

Thank you so much in advance.

So regardless of the engine serial number. Any 2011 and older will have had the faulty bolts installed? Im looking at a 2009 C63. Thank you,

You have it backwards. The Engine serial number is driven from the model year. So, to explain further, head bolts were changed after serial numbers higher than 60657 on the end of the number. Your serial number is 156985 60 041696. So, to be completely clear, you have the old bolts.

If you could check this one, I'd highly appreciate it. I'm going to check the car out this Friday. Also, just wanna say, props to replying to all of us with questions, I know there's not much gain for you in it but that's really cool of you man.

Again, all 2010 and older have the old bolts from the factory.
