2010 C63 AMG RIP. 2021 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road, 2013 C63 coupe
RIP 2010 C63, Welcome 2013 C63
Unfortunately I have destroyed the engine in my old 2010 black sedan to a point were it wasn't worth repairing or replacing it.
Now I'm in a 2013 silver coupe. I'm staying loyal to the 6.3 badge. Will enjoy the engine as long as possible since an engine like it will never be made again.
The 2013 is stock except for an IPE cat back exhaust, which is awful. It might sound good being outside the car but on inside it's just an annoying drown.
I most likely will get the resonator reinstalled.
Other mods and enhancements will follow.

Had one or two injectors staying open which dumped too much fuel in the cylinder, damaged the piston rings and hydro locked the engine. It had some major shavings in the oil and a very loud knock on the top end.
The car already had 120k miles on it and only worth $18k if sold in working condition. A rebuild or replacing of the engine was going to exceed $10k easily. Was able to sell it to a technician who can put his own time in to rebuild the engine.

Congrats on the 2013! How do you like the MCT transmission compared to the old torque converter? How long were the injectors leaky before you had huge issues?

The MCT shifts harder and has different shift points. Maybe I need to reset it to have it adapt to my driving style.
Injectors weren't leaking for long one of them was wide open that's how it filled up one cylinder and hydro locked it. When I pulled the spark plugs and turned the engine by hand it was just squirting the fuel across the garage.
Other differences I noticed are that the suspension is stiffer even stiffer as a 2010 on lowering springs.
The interior is rattling little more that in a 2010, so much for quality upgrades for the FL.
The entertainment and display improvement are nice.
besides that the car is pretty much the same.
It isn't much of an upgrade at least not as much as going from e46 M3 to 2010 C63.

Did you do anything with the injectors in the old car? clean them? were they the factory ones? did you put thechron it or have the dealer do a cleaning?

Awesome looking. This is the "Less is more" argument. Beautiful.
Very nicely modded sventastic82. Subtlety is definitely a great way to go.
Duffer4126....I'm just going to assume that the friction in your pants from being able to drive that beauty is what caused the fire. That's a real shame.

I’ve got to say, that looks sweet. I like the wheels, a nice take on the popular 507 style.

Oh word, I live in Athens, so probably like an hour-hour 1/2 away. Let me know if you're ever heading up to the mountains any time, seems hard to find other AMG drivers around here.
