Probably still worth checking out details on the engine and seeing what shipping might be. Perhaps the seller has a more advantageous commercial rate.

just buy another c63.

A used C63 motor in canada is like 15g's bare min with probably higher KM and who knows what else wrong with it

I priced out a used motor a few years ago out of curiosity and it was going to be 20-30k with around 40,000KM on it

What happened to your engine? I can't imagine that it would be cheaper to buy a whole new engine rather than rebuild it.

I take it this means your aftermarket insurance company in not going to pay for it or did they agree and you are trying to source one?

What happened to the engine, is it not rebuildable?

Ok hi guys been away for a while engine hunting.

I cannot discuss the hows and wheres and whats etc... because I am currently fighting with my extended warranty with GROUPE PPP (TOTAL A** HOLES BTW DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM EVER IF YOU LIVE IN CANADA)

We will know at engine teardown what happened but basically the engine went. My personal guess is a failure with the oil pump for some reason. IT was not hydrolock or head bold issue either. The result is a hole on the side of the block from where the connecting rod went through and ended on the floor and from that same hole we can see the piston has hit the head and so basically all hell broke loose inside the engine.

My car has always been super clean and well maintained so no need to start going that road...

So engine died at 96k km in my 2013 C63 P30 AMG.... RIP

I've seen a few but just want to warn anyone not to go for this one :

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-engines-and-e...urce=messenger


The reason is that engine selling for 4000$ (if its too good to be true....) is a blown engine bolted back together by the owner. He has a 2013 P31 parked up front with VIN WDDGJ7HB3DF991875 and the Serial number of the engine he is selling is 156 985 60 078 365 which is in fact the original engine for his car. I was hydrolocked so he found another smashed C63 and gutted it to replace his. The broken valve cover, removed intake, broken oil pan and oil spacer casting, broken oil pump, broken water pump, dented left header and hand made silicone gasket are all red flags. Plus 2 bent piston-rod assemblies on the floor next to the engine are also a dead giveaway. STAY CLEAR OF THIS ENGINE. Just hope I saved someone from wasting their money.

SO if anyone has either links (I've seen pretty much everyone on eBay by now and google but then again maybe not) or knows people or local recycling yards that might have a good engine please let me know. THANKS EVERYONE!

Geez, and I thought the season premiere of Walking Dead was hard to look at!
This is way more horrific lol.

Sorry, geri. Hopefully this works out for you. Not the first person I have heard of battling with PPP. Hang in there.

This is the first catastrophic engine failure I've seen here. Tough luck, hope you get it sorted.
