my 21 glc 63s have the same noise and I figured it out to be poor quality gas. Since I am in california we only get 91 octane gas so I figured that would be the first place to look into so I put in a bottle of octane booster from royal purple drove it around a a bit, to no suprise the knocking sound went away. I also only go to the same shell gas station near by so I also figured out who the culprit was. ![Frown](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

Engine sounds normal to me, some ticking is normal on these cars, I brought it in to the dealer for ticking and listened to a few other C63s and they all sound the same. However, based on your video, I'm assuming it was a cold start because I could hear some slight pulley/bearing noise but those are easy to get replaced and not that expensive
