C63AMG W205 Coupe
I’m convinced it’s a simple sensor that is misbehaving when it heats up. Without a code who knows where it is.
Soooooooo annoying, kept it mint for 5 years and have to get rid because no one can fix it. Also, can’t believe it’s not missed a beat for its first 4.5 years and 18,000 miles. I’ve only noticed it for the last 6 months. Not like it’s been crap since new.
Only protection you have in the UK is if you are under warranty (MB std 3 years) or lease it and then you can hand it back if you can prove it’s a lemon and unfit for purpose. Or group claim!

Hi guys, my first post here (after the introduction), I am experiencing similar issue on my C63 (non-S) SW.
However, this is not happening all the time, in Comfort or Sport mode I can feel the non-linear acceleration, but in Sport+ mode, I usually don't have it...
I will bring my car for service next week, and I will mention this to them, I will see what they say (and do)!
I am located in France btw.

Hey Everyone! Update time.
advisor text me saying they were able to duplicate the issue and discovered my left engine mount was broken. They replaced it and I’m hoping to have car later today or tomorrow! I will of course do my testing but seems strange such a tiny piece like that could cause this?
anyone have any insight? From my limited mechanical knowledge it shouldn’t cause RPM hesitation?

Definitely cant see that causing the RPM issue, and when the vehicles engine temp is hot. Mine is in MB and they have said the data they will be taking off of it will be being sent over to the AMG techs in Germany.

Good luck!! I have the exact same issue. I called and spoke with Mercedes CAC yesterday and they are submitted for review for buy back. They said more than likely nothing will happen because the service advisor never put anything in the documents about having an issue. It's so frustrating. I recommend everyone call Mercedes CAC so it gets noted that we are all having the same issue, no matter where we live.

The problem is there just aren’t enough people with this issue for Mercedes to listen to us. Even trusted high performance specialists are stumped, not just the main dealers. I’d be keen to know if all the these vehicles share any common traits like low mileage, type, age, Pre/after facelift etc.
Mine’s a UK coupe, June 2016, 20,000 miles since new
I have replaced or readapted every part that would make sense and some that didn’t, but are known weak points in the car. It drives even better than before……90% of the time.
I left the sensors to last as there are many, and in 2’s all the way down the car so that can get expensive quick.
We should all do a sensor lottery and take a pair each and see who gets it right.
