It might be the way the oil drains down on a decline.

Sorry, but a stupid question. You think just maybe all the oil swings to one side or front to back and the pump can't get enough oil up into your engine to prevent your death rattle? As Chris Berman says: Come on, man.......

You’d think AMG engineers would design an engine which could be started at any angle and not be starved of oil. I’ve had several other high performance cars and none of them exhibited this kind of behaviour. Very disappointing. Guess I’ll reverse park in my driveway from now on!

Sorry to let you know but you need new cam adjusters and most likely your cams are scared.

I suggest you sell that POS poorly designed car and buy one of those other high performance cars you spoke of.
