New 2012 C63 Owner!! I知 paranoid help!!
Hi everyone..
Like the title says I知 now a proud owner of a beautiful C63 wagon! I致e been looking for a C63 for about 6 months and wanted it to be the face lift version and had to be Performace Pack with a LSD and a wagon.
So with the help of my better half we decided to buy a white one with black and red interior with 59k on the clock. We are the first owners in our country as it was imported from Japan where it was brought from Yanase and maintained by them.
I absolutely love it but I致e been paranoid about something going wrong and now Ive found a problem and don稚 know what I should do...
When I come to a stop at the lights with my foot on brake pedal I slowly start to feel a knocking in the pedal and can hear it slightly, I suspect it痴 the transmission because when I put into neural it goes away.
Do I take it in and get a trans oil and filter change ? I知 unsure if it was done in Japan because I can稚 read the service history books.
Any help much appreciated!

Thanks N_Rob absolutely love the car! The power is just insane.
I posted my question into the forum you suggested. I have also booked into our local MB dealership to have the transmission filter and flush done and maybe they can shine some light on my suspected problem if it is even a problem
They are robbers though the price to do it is really high... being a mechanical engineer I’m sure I could do it easily but just don’t want to take the risk with my new pride and joy

Have you ever owned a car with a huge V8? Mine is shaking when it's just idling and you can feel it pretty well. Just saying, it might not be the cars problem, it just might be you who isn't familiar with big displacement engines.
