New to me e63s wagon.

Hey everyone! I just bought a e63s wagon with 122k. I want to do a full tune up. Besides, spark plugs, water pump, coils, what else do I need? I wouldn’t be surprised if the former owner is on here lol.

Welcome OP, check all fluids, transfer case, front diff, rear diff, coolant, brake, power steering, windshield, etc. All mounts. Motor, transmission etc. All bearings. All hangers, driveshaft hanger etc.

Definitely will take note. Thank you. I usually work on cars myself, but for some reason German engineering scares me a tad bit 😅

If this makes you feel better, MBs are the easiest to work with in the German competitors.

Definitely makes me feel better. This is my 3rd benz, but never had to do any major services as the other 2 had way lower miles.

Step one: Scope cylinders and do a compression test. Don’t spend any money until you know the condition of the cylinders….come back with your results.

I have not taken a lot of pictures yet because I have been driving my other car. I have these however. No exterior blemishes other than a quarter sized dent on the hood, crack on one side of the lower bumper valence and yellowed out DRL on the driver side.
