Thanks

Did you hold your finger on the traction control off button for 10 seconds? You can do burnouts forever after you do that.

You held the button and put it in Sport + mode?
Traction control will go OFF
and then you can do this all day

AWD shouldn't be having a problem
with it if traction is completely off that's weird

Traction control off lit up in the cluster equals burnout. Pretty simple

I've been able to do standing burnouts with traction off but also experienced it bogging a couple times. Not sure what caused it but its happened.

Something else is wrong then. What happens when you push the gas and try to get the back wheels spinning?

When it happened to mine it just bogged and wouldn't rev more than maybe 3k or so rpm. I'm pretty sure i was in S+ because the first button i press when i get in my car is the AMG button which is set to S+. I'll try it again but gonna wait a few days as i just installed new tires yesterday.

My car does this too! a way around it is to put the car in "dyno/test mode", just google it, its pretty easy.

Only thing id say is be careful when in dyno mode as your ABS is off.

Dyno mode doesn't, by chance, disengage the front drive on the 4 matics does it? Wishful thinking....

I just purchased a Facelift W212 E63 RWD model and have been facing the same issue. Did you ever find a solution for this?

Correct, you just hook up and go.

Minimal rubber left on the road.
