SL63 AMG
Newbie SL63 AMG driver with a couple of questions :)

Hi Everyone

Hoping someone can help with a couple of questions I have about the SL63 AMG.

Firstly I should quickly explain I am new MB driver, my car is actually in the garage being fixed and I will be driving the SL63 AMG for a a week or so. I have to say what a beast! Fasted car I have ever driven (and I thought my Focus RS was fast haha).
Anyway my questions are:
1) how can I find the mileage range left? In most cars I have driven it shows you an estimate of miles left in tank but I can't seem to find it on this one.
2) I have connected my phone via the bluetooth and it works for the calls but is there anyway to get audio to play via bluetooth? I use spotify for playing music in my car via the bluetooth but in the SL63 it doesn't seem to play audio via bluetooth apart from calls.

thanks in advance for any help

Nigel,

pulled up your user guide... assuming this 2012 and above...

https://www.mbusa.com/content/dam/mb...L_Operator.pdf

left side of the wheel you have 4 buttons with arrows... the miles to empty is in the Trip Computer menu

use the arrow keys left or right and up and down

SL63 AMG
Hi

Thank you for the replies.
it's a private plate but I believe its 2011.

I have fiddled with left control pad on steering wheel and I think I have found it, on the display it says 'distance' and shows 70miles (petrol gauge is on last quarter before empty).
Does anyone know playing music via the bluetooth?

on a separate note, why does it drink petrol for fun! 20mins driving costs £10!
