C63 AMG
Thanks for your answers.

I would ask a AMG Performance Center, instead of a normal Mercedes dealer.

Also I get another C63 for some coding stuff next week and can compare the engine sound.

Don't buy it if it ticks. Not sure what you are hearing but get it fixed before you put down a cent or look for another one.

I can hear the injectors firing. But they're supposed to do that

I don't hear a ticking, tapping or knocking. In fact this sounds like a healthy M156.

That is exaclty what my C63 is doing.

For me that are 99% the Lifters.

But they are all new...
I had exactly the same sound with my 2007 CLS63 and it turned out to be faulty PCV valve. Had it changed and the ticking sound was gone.

Was it making noises on hot restarts or on cold starts? My car makes that exact same noise, but only when the car temps are hot (235-245) and only when I restart the car. I have all brand new camshafts, cam adjustors and lifters. This is frustrating.

(Other M156 are ways quieter).

My Problem:
I got a ticking/ tapping noise.
It follows the rpm.
I think it is also louder at higher oil temp. (but I can hear it at any oil temp.)

Some recording:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaBq2g63-S4

https://youtu.be/aBPszUjGCxg

I replaced all head bolts and also all lifters.
The Cam Adjusters are locking, so i think they are not damaged (has already the last available partnumber).

Some guys told me that this problem could be the heads itself (oil supply to the lifters cracked or blocked).

Oil pressure is around 1,5 Bar at idle, and 4.5-4.8 Bar at 3000 rpm

Can anyone help?
Im not motivated, removing the heads again

Hey man, i know this is an old post, but did you ever find a solution? New cams?
