2014 C63 AMG 507
New Owner!

Just picked up a 2014 C63 507 edition! Im already in love with the car however after reading a lot of posts on here, I've been seeing that for some, well actually all while in M mode the car will downshift automatically for you, while slowing down or coming to a stop. However for me my car doesn't automatically downshift and ends up coming to a stop at 3 or 4th gear.

And then I will have to press the downshift paddles if I want to get to gear 1 or 2. Why is it doing this? yes I know I can manually downshift with the paddle but I find it really jerky and want to see if the automatic downshift will be less jerky and produce a similar poping noise that occurs when downshifting manually

New to the forums so sorry if this is nooby question!

welcome to the forum and congrats on ur 507 edition!
It should come back to 1st at least when u come to a complete stop... Since it's a 2014 it should still be under warranty... Just take it to a dealer and get it checked out... Good luck!

Keep in mind that manual mode *should* be jerky. Manual mode tells the car, shift as fast as possible! I'm on the track!

Now being able to stop with the car in 3rd gear is certainly not proper behavior.
