i hear the ticking... somebody with an e63 will no for sure if its normal...

 

did it recently start making that noise?

 

That's fairly normal. Some are louder than others. It should quiet down after the motor is warmer. Normally they tick like that at start up when cold but once the oil has circulated well, then they'll quiet down. Mine ticks at first although not as loud as yours. Was the motor cold?

You should do a test increasing the rpms. If the ticking gets louder and faster along with the throttle, then you might have an issue. And especially if the noise comes and goes after the motor is warmed up to operating temp. The cam adjusters might need replacing.

See this thread and especially read the last two posts: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...cking-top.html

 

That was on a warm engine it was up to temp
So I'll have it checked out

 

Any updates???

 

Yes we put 5-30 oil and it much better
