Towing with the E63 Wagon?
Looking at a RWD 2012 E63 wagon....

Was wondering if anyone found a towing solution with it?

Thanks!

The manual recommends against towing with the W212.

For sure you'd be out of luck for warranty coverage when your airmatic fails.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
A ML63/GL63/G63/G65 would be perfect for this task.

i've asked B4 and done some checking with tow equipment people and come up with squat.

I just ended up getting a Curt hitch and slapping it on my wife's X3.

Hmmm,

Kind of sucks if you cant tow with this considering a honda fit can tow!

I really want to tow with the E63 wagon, would look super cool when I tow my motorcycle to the track!


I recently actually purchased a SQ5 for that purpose! But would be pretty damn sweet with an E63

Honda will void your warranty for towing with a Fit.

MB offers the factory Euro hitch in the European market. This may be possible to retrofit onto the E63. Contact MBenzNL for more information.
