Anyone heard the click engine noise from S63?
My 08 S63 AMG has 6500 miles now, from about a month ago, I heard some click engine noise when first started it in the morning, more like that "diesel noise", I let it idle about 10 min, the noise went away, it can be heard in cold start only, not in warm/hot start, anyone had notice the noise? any idea? or does it need engine valves adjustment? thanks.

Yeah its normal for the 63 series engines. Thats the bucket taps and lifters ticking. Its completely normal, once the oil has fully lubricated the lifters and the engine reaches the right temp, the noise goes away.
