Power Limit of 2013 SL65 AMG Tranny
Was just curious what the power limit of the new 7 speed auto that’s in the sl65 2013 and
up? There isn’t much info on this tranny or even it’s internal code name.
The old 5 speed handled 796 pound feet, so it’d be interesting to see if this one can handle even more.

The MB warranted torque limit for both the 5 and 7 speed units in the V12 cars is 1,000N-M (newton-meters.) That translates to 738ft-lb of torque. Tuners can bypass that limit with current tunes for 7sp cars. The older 5sp cars were easier for tuners to reprogram. I am not aware of a specified power limit for the transmissions. The highest factory horsepower V12 cars were the Black Series SL's but even those had a max of 738 ft-lb torque. I had two of my older V12 biturbos tuned to supposedly slightly over 800ft-lb peak torque and put over 60k miles on both with no issues.
