Sl63 transmission whine
Just picked up a 2011 Sl63. It seems to have a loud tranny whine at all speeds. Is this a common thing with this car? My old Sl55 did not sound like this. Only 22k miles.

check fluid, if full. Maybe trans pump.

SL63, GTR
Any chance that you bought this from Chicago Motor Cars in Vegas?
