S550 2007 AMG PACKAGE
My new 2016 AMG GTS
Meet my new AMG GTS, 2016 with 12k miles!! What do you all think??
Its lowered (not sure what on), has Quick Silver exhaust and lots of things blacked out, which i think i will remove and replace with carbon fiber wrap


2 Questions for anyone who can help.
1. Does anyone know where the Sirius XM Module is, my satellite shows No Service so im wondering if something is loose?
2. Some of my buttons like the START/STOP or the ESC button seems to be slightly peeling, is this something that can be replaced with another button? if so where can i get thse buttons

Everything should be cover under factory or CPO warranty. Bring it to your local Mercedes being it’s a 2016.

Good luck.

Not necessarily, depends on in service date. Anything sold/titled prior to 10/22/15 (as of today’s date of me typing this) would be out of the factory 4yr/50k warranty.

And car may not have any CPO if dealer didn’t go through process to do.

To the OP-you most likely need to subscribe to get the Sirius/XM, hence the no service you mention as no subscription is currently active.

Do you listen to anything particular on SiriusXM like Howard Stern?

I used to have it and the sound quality is so bad it reminds of using bunny ears to watch TV back in the 90s.

Yeah, most 2016 cars are now out of warranty.

If the car is out of factory warranty, do you have a CPO or extended ( never own a AMG without extended warranty )?

Give MBusa a call and ask them to good will the repair/replacement since it’s so close to factory warranty and you just bought it.

Good luck.

Congratulations! I like the saddle interior.

I just took delivery of a GTC, this generation is awesome!

I don't think the film on the buttons is stock - could the previous owner have applied PPF? Maybe that's what peeling off.

I don’t think that’s Magno paint, @Wolfman ! That would have been a heck of a polish!
