Hello MB Crew
Hello all,

Just got my first AMG 7 days ago!
First week....incredible, 17 years old...45k miles and 630bhp
1 week in, got an airflow sensor issue haha
Now down on power, not driving well, stuck in Germany in lockdown, over Xmas and garages closed until 11.1.21
Ain't that a *****!!

But who cares, she can rest in my garage and I will fix her up in the new year....cant wait to through my money at this little beauty.

Thanks to all for advice I have enjoyed before coming a member

Welcome, and I'm sorry to hear about the issues. Hopefully it's an easy fix and you're back on the road soon.

Post up a picture when you have a chance
