Anyone else hearing noises from differential?
Been hearing and feeling a small clunk when slowly accelerating from a stop. Comfort mode and my individual mode which is pretty much everything sport + exhaust on and comfort mode suspension.
I hear it worse when making a right turn for some reason. Also a few times when coming to a stop the transmission downshifted really hard in 2nd or 1st. Pretty violently actually. I ve had some pretty highly strung sports cars that have clunks and weird noises that are just part of the personality of the car ( E46 M3, Carrera GT) but just want to make sure nothing is wrong? Anyone else experience this? |
At what mileage do you experience this?
Did you do the oil change for the rear differential at 3000km (approx 2000 miles) ? |

I fought Benz to buyback two brand new 2014 e550’s over the 4-3 clunk and was successful
my e63S has been smooth with only occasional very rare downshift clunks |

Worse when im making the right turn at the stop. it has to go back to the dealer anyways since my distronic cruise control doesn’t want to activate. |

I only have about 250 miles on the car. Still in the break in period and obeying most of the rules.

They actually recommend that you stay in comfort mode during the break in.
After the break in and before the rear diff oil change I've heard that they recommend using the race mode and give the rear diff som beating.. (Don't think this part is official..) |
