Diff C63 and C63s
Can you install a C63s diff to a C63 , same ratio 2.82?

Technically yes, the FL C63 and C63S both now have the electronic locking differential and yes as far as I know both S and non-S have the same final drive ratio. However, the electronic diff has to be coded in so that it works. Obviously you need the electronic part to work as the PFL non-S diff is purely mechanical. Things like the ESP, DYNAMIC SELECT, Race Start etc. have to be coded properly so that they take advantage of the diff and all works correctly, otherwise you just gonna have an open diff.

Can The diff run like a normal C63 if the diff lock is not plugged in in the diff ?

So my diff on the C63 is damaged, I went and got a C63s diff with the same ratio of 2.82,w205 2015, now question is will it work? If so what needs to be done in order to cancel the electronic Part on the C63s

I'm not entirely sure what you are expecting here. Should have gone and get the correct part. You don't wanna cancel the electronic part of the diff. Do you understand the difference between an LSD and an open diff? These cars have locking diffs for a reason. The ESP and traction control all factor in the differential, so they'll likely be totally confused if the behavior of the rear wheels doesn't match expectations. I haven't heard of anybody retrofitting a C63S diff to a C63, but that's essentially what you'd have to do and not sure what's all involved, but probably doable with the necessary coding knowledge, but much easier to replace it with the correct part.

What's broken on your C63 diff? Why not get it fixed? If you still want to use the C63S diff, you'll need to code your C63 car to use the E-diff. You could remove the E-diff from the C63S case and put your mechanical diff into the C63S case.

Get it fixed right, there are safety issues as well with an open diff versus the electronic in terms of traction control and how it all comes together, etc.. Just get the right part, or you will probably be doing this job twice at 3x the cost if you're lucky. |
