2017 C63S Coupe
Brand new C63S Coupe & some questions.

Hello,
I just got my 2017 C63S coupe today. Man it is a beast.




My car has the AMG sports exhaust system but I have a few questions.

1: How to have the exhaust valve in open position on in default (i.e. do not need to push the exhaust button every time)

2: How to keep engine start-stop function OFF in default?

Thank you guys!
Jay

Congrats and enjoy!

1) You can't; the law says it has to be on by default (in Europe at least)
2) You can't, but what you can do is press the start button without your foot on the brake (i think you have to do this twice), and then you can select your driving mode before putting your foot on the brake and starting the car up, so it'll start in loud mode. Not quite the same, but an option at least.

My solution is set up Indivudual mode to your liking. Now its just second nbature to get in the car. press the start button, hut up on the drive select, and put the car in drive.

My solution is the same as Yours and it does become second nature.

Congratulations on the car! Good to see some in white... did you get the polar or diamond white?

I agree with the above... set up your individual mode that is the best option.

Site only mentions 2016. Are you sure this will work on a 2017 C63 S AMG coupe?

I forgot to say that driving with the engine in sport+ mode (not sure about sport), whether set that way by sport+ or individual, stops the auto start-stop from coming on.

They told me it works on 2017, and their web site has not yet been updated to reflect the fact. I will absolutely be doing this when mine arrives (in the middle of the Atlantic right now). Can't freakin' wait!

Looks like no power mirrors for you, either.

Opening the exhaust valve before turning on the engine is kinda useless because the car automatically opens the valves for the initial startup growl.
