2015 ML63
Just picked up 2015 ML63

Just picked up 2015 Ml63 (performance pkg, black 21" wheels, entertainment system, driver *** pckg, chrome pckg, diamond white)No pano roof, had one before and it constantly was squeaking. Big change from 2012 E63. First suv in a long time but because of kid and trying for another one it was a must. Still in a brake mode so really cannot tell much but a tune will be a must. I had a Renntech tune on the e63 and went thru 5 sets of plugs thru 3 years. Anyone has/had Renntech tune on their ML and any problems with plugs?? Input would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

Did you get plugs from Renntech too?
I routinely order them every time I tune a car with Renntech and never had any problems.
2011 S63, 2013 CLS63, 2013 G63 and current E63S.

Yes, they were from Renntech. Seemed like every 5k they were going bad. Do not want to have this headache of plugs again. I got stock in middle of nowhere with wife and a kid bc of the plugs. Had to get towed and all. But I guess this is always the risk with these tunes.

Eurocharged Performance ML63 and TT lambo
Do a search around the forums for plug issues with tunes. It seems to be only a few vendors who exhibit this problem. We have done a ton of biturbo tunes and haven't had to replace plugs.

Congrats Sir you!
Trust me, you will really enjoy you your ml63 !

The w166 ml amg is an incredible high performance suv but make sure you are in s+ mode for the steering

Imo there are 2 mods you must do:
1. Get a Brabus exhaust !
2. The tune is also a must because you will release the monster inside your amg

Btw, I love the colour you chose it's the one I wanted

I am enjoying my 2014. It is quick but heavy. Can't complain. I was told the 2015 was not going to be available so soon.

Great choice on color Whats the inside? Gotta say I love the black wheels too.

You will have tons of fun in it, especially after its modded.

The wagon price fully loaded was around 120k and change this ML Was at 117k. Yes wagon is little more expensive.
