S63 known issues?

Looking at a 2011 S63 with 30k miles, are there any known issues I should be worried about? Anything I should be on the look out for?

I can't say I have heard of any but there are big problems with the previous engine installed between 2007-2010.

Not from what I have read. The MCT trans can be a bit jerky but I have read that can be fixed. I really like my 2011 S63.

I've had my '11 S63 for almost 2 years, been pretty much worry free except for an ABC corner failure which they are known for (had the same happen to the GL550, E63). Otherwise an absolutely awesome car and its a heck of a bargain for the money.

You should ask the mods to move this into the correct S63 forum
