Unhappy 2016 C63S 250hp Engine data screen

Hello Guys,
i have a little issue after i got my C63S from service back, If i look in the Engine data display it shows me just 250HP... before i brought it to the service i had 500 on that display.

is there any possibility to change that back to the 500hp?

It also looks like it's showing battery voltage instead of transmission temp. Is that a setting you changed or did it come back to you that way?

it sure it’s weird but I doubt you got a C300 load...doubt the car would drive and you sure would know the difference.

My assumption is its just the part for the display software (maybe an update to that SW was performed, like a wrong display cal factor based on correct sensor readings) .....or he would not be able to drive the car out of the service bay.

just to clarify, since some seem to think I was being serious ... I did put ( j/j ) = just joking at the end of my comment on stating he got a wrong load of software...

now with that being said, it is possible to get an incorrect dashboard load, as my car had to be hooked up with Germany, to get the Dashboard SW update because the oil change and service due system was all out of wack and could not be correctly set via normal channels. (took them 2 days, back and forth with Germany getting the build to take)

Never heard back from you about this, what happened?
