2014 E63s
new 13 TT owner with few Q's.

Just picked up a 13 E63 sedan and have a few questions i'm sure many here can answer.
I noticed a blue "P" when i get to low speeds, no idea what it is and why it shows up.
How can I set up the "AMG" button to the settings of my choice?
Would really like to replace the amber side markers, are there different qualities ones out there or are the eBay ones the ones everyone is using and lastly, I'd like to tune it and can't figure out why the nearly $3k price tag from EC, my 211 63 tune from EC was around a grand if i remember correctly. Replies/responses greatly appreciated.

The blue P is the Parking sensor. It has located somewhere at the curb where you can park.


Or maybe it just knows you have to Pee... Cars are VERY smart these days.

No that's the Yellow P Button As I remember Eurocharge tunes has sold a tune for this car as low at $999.95 at certain times, I think the regular price is $1295.95. As I remember with the AMG Button you set the settings the way you want them and press and hold down the AMG Button and then it remembers these settings and everytime you want to go to these settings then you just press the AMG button. Edited to say, wow you are right it is now $2995 for a Eurocharged tune, they have gone up a real lot since I last looked at their webpage, I guess they figured all the others were up there so might as well join them since their tune is comparable, unreal.

Congrats on the purchase!

I picked up a '12 TT not too long ago. I replaced the amber side markers with a pair of smoke markers from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-2010-13-MERCEDES-W212-4D-5D-SMOKED-BUMPER-SIDE-MARKER-LIGHT-CHROME-BULB-/151673638235?hash=item2350740d5b
Fitment is perfect and most importantly it does not fog up.

2016 AMG S65, AMG GL63, 2012 AMG E63 With AMS Alpha 9 Package, Renntech 200 Catted Downpipes.
For about $3,000. Go with Renntech, the gains are very noticeable and I'm sure you will like the whip lash ( sort of speak ).

I am by no means a mechanic, but the amber side markers can be purchase from eBay and replace very easily.

Good luck with your new toy.
