Hi all, I am K from Roanoke, VA. Long time lurker finally bit the bullet and joined. Grew up around a lot of old school diesel Mercs and loved them growing up but my father who obsessed about reliability never took the plunge. I want to finally have a fun car so hunting for a nice E63 estate for my wife, dog, and future child to enjoy. Looking forward to interacting and learning from/with you all.

Hi all, Jason from UK - just bought a W213 E63S last week and thought I'd see what you guys have got going on.

A dirty car is a happy car - possibly.

Hello. My name is Stephane and am new to this forum.
I bought a 2010 GLK350 about five years ago and just love this car. It is an absolute beast especially for our Canadian winters.
Lately though, I have been runninig into some issues namely, ABS, cruise control codes and such. My research so far online seems to be pointing to a faulty wheel speed sensor which I would gladly change.
But to find the faulty sensor it would be best to get an OBDII diagnostc tool. That in itself is a challenge as I don't want to spend too much on one ($150.00) or less would be great.

Any recomendations?

Stephane.

Hi.

Any number of issues can be affecting your car, from the electronic module in your key to water infiltration or what ever... I found this to be a good source of knowledge: https://www.cartechconnect.com/

Hope this helps

Hi guys. Simon from Australia here. I recently picked up a very clean 2003 E55 AMG with 66,000 kilometres on the clock. Apart from some questionable minor mods it is largely unmolested and a total beast to drive. I've already found some of the information in these forums useful and hope I can add to the sharing at some point.

I own 2008 MB E350 4matic Sport option currently has 92K original miles and is due for appearance enhancement
I Have been searching for aftermarket wheels that in no way resemble OEM wheels. I have 18" all around and want to retain that size but because the wheel searches for 18 x 8.5J et38 w 5x 112 bolt pattern never provide anything but OEM style wheels I believe MB decided that owners wishing to *******ize their work of "art" should just junk it or learn to love it.

Anyone out there ever attempted to totally change wheels with success? I am currently rolling on aftermarket OEM style wheels due to original rims splitting while wearing Run-Flats on Georgia's pot hole highways.

This has been a disastrous choice of auto from the get-go. Previous year models were subject to recall for malfunctioning engines but though this vehicle was built in the final month of the last year's production using all that previous year engine parts and specs MB in their infinite wisdom (?) determined that they would continue to sell these defective engines but deny expanded service assistance. To repair their JUNK at owner expense is a serious blow to the wallet leaving an $11K hole in the billfold. If you have ever thought you have been screwed, I hope you 'at least' were kissed or received a firm hug. I did not.

Meanwhile, back to my original: Please send or post any link with STEEL wheels to fit my 2008 211 E350- 4 matic Sport option. No more allow wheels for me, even if I have to modify wheels or rotors to accommodate the fit. THANKS

THANK YOU

mayor, you are most likely to find the answers that you are looking for by visiting the W211 sub-forum. Good Luck.

Thanks for having me!

Howdy all. I'm a new member and glad to be here.
I live in the Denver, CO metro area. I purchased a new 2021 BMW X3 M40i this past October and I'm waiting for my new 2021 GLC 300 to arrive on a dealer trade. I'm having a bunch a fun driving the ever so quick X3 M40i and can't wait to get my GLC 300.

I have been driving a 2014 E550 for the last few years. I buy 3 year old cars coming off lease with around 15,000 mi. The car is satisfactory but with a few years as a National competition license driving high performance sports cars, the E550 has adequate power but I want my car to have a limited slip differential and be able to drive off the rear wheels only. I have also found in those few areas where I can get to 130mph the brakes are not adequate and the car wallows on turns on the sports setting. So I am looking at 2018-2019 e63s cars with ceramic brakes and a "track" setting. I do drive up to 13 hours at a time am wondering about the sports seat option. I definitely want seats that message but like high bolsters and wonder how I would like them after and during that 13 hour drive.
I am also wondering whether if I am on the rear wheel drive setting if I can truly "dirt track" - drift the car?
Thank you for any responses.

Sounds like you would be better off with a Bugatti Le Voiture Noir....

Steven Sloma

I doubt I could afford it. Based on behavior on the track, I don't recall if in Road and Track or Car and Driver but the e63 S held up well against Porsches and many other cars on a Virginia track test of many cars. I also like the subtlety of Mercedes and note the police don't seem to pay a lot of attention to the sedans.

Bezalel

I can see there are advantages to having a fast car that doesn't look like one. My ML320 got to 128mph on the M6 (UK, north of Preston) and I got away with it... A very sporty car or a hot hatch invites police attention, as does lots of modifications. Also, expensive powerful sedans are usually driven by rich people, and they have different rules and the police leave them alone! Mercedes seem to be more comfortable than most other equivalent cars, but a very rich car enthusiast friend says Ferrari are the best cars out of all cars.
