I was wondering if there are any high mileage c63 w205 out there (maybe 50,000+ miles). Seems like the NA 6.2 w204 have shown themselves to be "relatively" reliable. How is the reliability with the new 4.0 L turbo engines? If so, have you had any major issues?

36k miles so far, no issues.
25k+ of it was with various piggyback tunes, first with Rebellion, then now with Dinan.

I have close to 42K on my car. Runs great, I take care of the car big time though and it was all don't up with stage 3 turbos and everything at one time. I bought Guilty's car an old member that now has a GTS.
35K miles here.
Only work that's been needed (outside of recalls) is replacement of the Eco Mode capacitor. Other than that, been trouble-free.

I am curious about this also...I have a 2018 with 17K and I am very interested in keeping this car for a long time.
They say the bottom end on these things are bullet proof but what about the other non-maintenance things?
Also would be curious about the highest mileage W205 with a tune.

52,000 km (32,000 miles) on my C63s Coupe
Engine is in mint condition no leaks or sh*t but other small annoying issues already seen after 2 years like:
1. Blind spot assist not working on driver's side
2. Side skirt being replaced under warranty for "drooping" off
3. Both seats starting to show a bit of wear on bolsters
4. Performance exhaust rattle when valves are open and flooring it in 3rd gear
Also got my new indi mechanic to roll back the updated software merc did to it which made the car feel less than it's former self. Apart from that she's alright I guess.

So looking at the miles and your other ride I would assume the C63S is your daily? Thanks for the info and things happen over time with any car...is MB going to fix your exhaust?Originally Posted by Jimmy_c63s

I'm at 67500+ miles. Engine hood door will not stay up anymore when opened. Headliner clip broke causing noise while driving across uneven road or bump.
By the way, there's a software update, something about the suspension not up ro specifications.

First post for me.
I have a 2015 C63s just ticked over 56k miles, so far so good with no issues. The usual rattles and squeaks.
i have my A service on Tuesday, so will be interesting to see if any issues arise.

That's right bro, the C63s is the daily and weekender now. I pretty much drive it only, and it suits all occasions. The torque is incredible, it really gives you a surprise when you gun it.Originally Posted by W205-S

I remember when I first got her I thought to myself "I'll finally have a car that won't give me any issues for a while". Pfft, yeah right

Oh well, it's all part of being an "enthusiast" they say.
How's your car running? Any issues with your C63s? Your car is a good two years newer than mine. Hope yours hasn't given you any grief

I'm at just under 50,000 miles for a 2016 model that went out of warranty in September 2019. I have a couple of rattles that developed. One is coming from the drivers side door and sounds like something is rolling around. The other is coming from the passenger dash and is a constant rattle. I can't figure out what's causing either noise. I bought a cheap 2015 Mini Cooper S in November as my daily driver now and pull out the AMG for fun drives or longer distance trips only.
Just over 50k miles on my 2017. Tuned stage 2 since 20k miles. Zero mechanical issues whatsoever. Car is fast AF

I hear you Bro...I once owned a pristine 911 C4S so leased a Range Rover as my daily. But my only ride currently is my AMG and I love this car as a daily driver...best of both worlds (Luxury/Performance) Originally Posted by Jimmy_c63s

I think enthusiast are the worse because we expect it to be perfect...well at least I know I do and the dealership never sees it quite the same way...LOL Originally Posted by Jimmy_c63s

My 2018 is running great (knock on wood) but I have only owned it since November (2nd owner). They already had to replace my rear pads because the dealer did a crappy job of inspecting it for the CPO...MB is going to reimburse me though.Originally Posted by Jimmy_c63s

Other than that my seats are showing a little wear and there are a few rock chips in my Xpel front clear bra that off me but at least they are not in the paint.
A few rattles here and there but nothing the Open Exhaust valves or Burmester cannot take care of...LMAO
