Help: 2020 S63 AMG won’t start — “Parking Brake See Owners Manual” → “Stop Vehicle Le
It first throws a “Parking brake warning, then a “Transmission cooling” message, and after that it just refuses to start, but electronics turn on. The last time this happened, it eventually started after 20 minutes, and temps ran higher than normal on the way back.
Upon taking it to Mercedes to get it diagnosed, they couldn’t find an issue. It’s been running fine since that point (no messages, normal temps), but yesterday the exact same issue happened. Again, I had to wait 20 minutes and it eventually started, but on the drive back I noticed the temps were higher than normal.
Although this problem has only occurred twice in the last few months, I noticed it started after the transmission was serviced earlier this year. Wondering if anyone has ideas on this.




I have a 2018 S63 sedan and have never seen that before. Hope that link helps and you get it sorted out.
