Maybe in your part of the world it doesn’t happen. It seems like every problem I’ve ever heard of is from up where your from. It’s most likely why you all pay crazy money for everything. I personally know that playing with your ECU will void warranty if you break something, make sure you give MB a heads up that you used a device to access your ECU, although I believe they might just already know, maybe you will walking soon also. So I’m just going to agree to disagree on that point. I own 3 AMG vehicles as well as 20 Porsche turbo s. I have crazy mods to all my rides, not mention personal friends with in MB and Porsche. I was just sharing a thought, and you went to *** hat mode that’s just past C mode for you. You can laugh all you choose to. I just find it odd that the one time issues I’ve dealt with regarding the New 63 s Coupe AMG 4.0l, have not returned given my ride is only putting out around 800 hp. Your issues Are most likely relevant with the cheaper model. BTW if you ever make it to the NW if your ride doesn’t break down hit me up I can show you some serious rides that don’t have issues.

I don’t care about the rides you have or your friends rides. Coming from a long line of Ferrari ownership. F430, F430 spider, Scuderia, 458, 458 spider, 458 speciale, 458 speciale alerts, 488, 488 spider, 488 pista and have my F8 on order. The Pista just sold and I walked with 50k in hand. I’m first allocation on any Ferrari out. I’ve had all the AMG, techart Porsche turbo, gt2 you name it.
I choose the GLC and C class AMG due to I can beat the hell out of them. I just got rid of my E63s because it was a pain in the *** and I kept finding myself jumping in the GLC Payment is cheap and best bang for your buck.
I bought this GLC to build for giggles and drive it everyday. Unless you have touched your turbos I can guarantee that your GLC Coupe isn’t close to 800hp. My GLC is 750hp to the crank and 600awhp. Dynosheet to prove that one.
so please if you’re ever in San Diego don’t give me a shout

My company is based out of there and it's a beautiful place to visit. If I actually lived there, I would get fired because I would never work and mountain bike all day everyday.
You have a 800HP GLC? I would like the details on that.

Actually, I have stage 2 turbos custom hand made down pipes and Exaust hand made by my fab guy, with a good ECU tune. I also tend to use 104 Sunoco gt plus. He has actually done my headers for my P31 6.2 and he just finished my GTR down pipes he does great work. I really don’t do Dyno numbers it’s kinda pointless to me after the first time to dial things in, so I tend to be o the lighter side of what I think I can get with all my mods. . I just like to go heads up and see what happens.

GLC63 AMG S Coupe
I took my car to the same dealer as before for my CEL problem and they just told me that they have to change fuel pressure sensors.
As expected they don't have them in stock, (this is the largest MB dealer in Montreal area.)
Thay will only get them tomorrow. No car loaner for me. They send me home in the Uber.
The dealer told me that I have to arrange my own transportation to pick the car up.
Nice customer service... their motto is " A level of service that exceeds your expectations" Right!!!
I will keep you guys informed on what happens tomorrow.

I home took the car this morning and the dealer changed the rail pressure sensor.
During the drive home I could smell some gasoline thinking that it may have been spiled during the change of the sensor.
Parked car in the garage and went to check on it and the gas smell was pervasive.
Had to go back to the dealer and they have tighten the sensor and now the smell is gone.
So much for extra special service for AMG owners.
Let's hope that the CEL light problem is solved.

No, the problem is not solved.
This morning the car would not start. On the second try, it started with yellow CEL and in limp mode.
Back at the dealer. Again no courtesy car is available.
As far as being able to select the best technician- forget it. I can’t even talk to the person working on my car. I only talk to my service adviser and he has limited technical knowledge.
I also asked to talk to the service manager and he told me that he has never seen a CEL problem on CL63 cars. He was not much help except that they will try to fix it.
I will keep you guys posted.

Unfortunately in Canada there is no such thing as a Lemon Law! I went through a process where if in the USA they would have had to take the vehicle I was driving back. Here you are just screwed lost over 20K on a current year vehicle since I got tired of putting up with the dealership and manufacture. Not a MB by the way. I would contact MB Canada and if that didn't work call head office in Germany. Also, get the email address of the GM of the dealership and keep going up the line. The fact that you can't even get a loaner or rental car from the dealer is complete BS.

That’s so bad!!! I’d be loosing my **** right now. Their is a contact here in the states maybe you can get some answers to your problem. Contact Josh McDowell at Mercedes of Lynnwood Wa personal friend of mine. He has one of the top AMG Techs in the states working with him. Also the shop Forman at Mercedes of Beleveue Wa is top 5 in the USA. I know for a fact they could hear you out and give you a starting point to figure out your CEL issues. I can also reach out if need be give it a shot see what you get.

Call MBUSA customer care and tell them that this is your daily driver and that you're pissed off. Be polite but let them know that you are not happy. I'm pretty sure they can prompt your dealership to drive a loner out to you. If you have another MB dealer nearby you should try them. Service loaners are the only reason to use the dealership for anything anyway..

Honestly, I could care less what your opinion is. What’s funny is that for as modern as you say you are!! your one and only AMG that you most likely can barely afford and your **** is always broken. What’s unfortunate is your just a pretender wanting to be relevant. This is a forum to share your thoughts and experiences, in your case I believe your two minutes are up.

your two minutes are up! really don't care how long you have been any where, one day when your lower end rides will break and MB will figure out things out any inconsistency Regardless of what you may believe, just the fact you were scanning your lower end cars ECU is just enough of a reason to refuse your warranty for any reason. MB doesn't one way or the other weather they fix it or not.

That's nice son. Go run along now, the grown-ups are talkin'.
tedboss1, some people have had issues with early plug fouling on the M177 motor. So far, most of them were resolved with plugs, coils, and software. I haven't read or heard of anything catastrophic with that motor like the early W205 4cyl motors. I do think you should switch service centers if you can. You shouldn't need repeat visits for this. Limp mode is a safety issue. They need to set you up with a loaner and keep the car until it's properly diagnosed and fixed.

Thanks

I just got a call from the dealer that they suspect that 2 fuel injectors are leaking on the left side of the engine.
They are putting the car outside to do a cold test again to verify if this is the problem before ordering replacement injectors. ( Cost of $2000 each ?)
Saga continues.
