  1. £1,400, no thank you! I believe I have cross-referenced and identified a Brembo disc and pad set that is compatible, shared with the AMG GT and E63S, at about half the price of Mercedes-Benz.
  2. They are not distinct two-piece brakes, as you envisioned (I possess those on my Ultima); nonetheless, in relation to your inquiry, upon closer inspection, the bell may be composed of aluminium. It is a singular assembly that cannot be disassembled, lacking any fasteners. I saw the original query as enquiring whether I possessed the optional carbon composite brakes, as that is the common assumption when the term "composite" is spoken. I am unable to locate any part numbers for the discs or pads, and it has been proposed that this is due to Mercedes' intention to restrict the aftermarket from providing certain AMG components. Certainly, this implies they can impose charges over £1,000, which is absurd. Any part number for these discs and pads would be beneficial. Thank you!
  3. Greetings, everyone. I appreciate your responses. The callipers were inspected a few months ago when they were detached, and the pads were examined. No problems detected. I will conduct an additional inspection and cleaning when I organise the discs. The C63S is equipped with distinct discs and pads compared to the C63; nevertheless, they are not composite but rather steel. Composite brakes were an optional expense I chose to forgo. I am currently seeking recommendations for discs and pads. Any suggestions would be appreciated. They are exceedingly difficult to locate outside of Manitoba.

  5. According to the headline, my 2019 facelift C205 C63S need replacement front discs. The automobile has barely accumulated a few thousand miles since their replacement, and although they are not worn, one of them is significantly deformed. The vehicle has been utilised infrequently, having accumulated 14,000 miles from its inception and merely 3,000 miles since the installation of new Mercedes discs and pads; so, I am quite disheartened that one of them has warped after such minimal usage. Considering the expense of the discs from MB and the rapidity of this failure, I am dissatisfied with the prospect of incurring the AMG tax again, hence I am exploring alternative options. Regrettably, the C63S is equipped with distinct brakes compared to the C63, and I am encountering difficulties in locating aftermarket alternatives. Despite being Brembo brakes, I anticipated they would be readily available; yet, the reality is quite the contrary. Has anyone here successfully procured replacement front discs and pads for a C63S? Thank you!
  6. It will likely require a pull on a jig to execute it correctly.

  8. If you are unable to make that function, it is exclusively available through a dealer.
  9. ^^^X2 Conduct a test run without the cabin filter to eliminate it as a variable.
  10. I apologise for my lack of knowledge, but where can I locate the mentioned settings? The dashboard display?
  11. Upon attempting to charge my new CX 70 PHEV for the first time, the charger remains affixed to the outlet and would not disengage.
  12. Do it yourself? I personally put a Smart Top on my Volvo C70, which has an older electrical system. Aside from locating one connection concealed under the boot liner, the process was uncomplicated and devoid of issues.
  13. Inappropriate thread
  14. Does any of this have significance? Hardware version: 47/06; Hardware number: 0034460610 Software Version: 20/12 Software Number: 0009028111
  15. The garage has examined it. No error codes are present. They possess the current software version number. However, it is uncertain if it is an old or fresh update. How will we ascertain? Thank you
  16. I acquired it from a dealer. The task will be performed under warranty; nevertheless, it is uncertain if it justifies an engine removal procedure.
  17. I acquired an E63 5.5 bi-turbo around one month ago and am really enamoured with the vehicle. I believed it prudent to have a comprehensive service and a gearbox service performed. Upon completion of the servicing, the garage informed me of six oil leaks present in the engine. They are informing me that it requires an engine removal, but I am uncertain whether it is worthwhile. None of the leaks exhibit any dripping, and over the course of 1000 kilometres, the oil level has remained unchanged. I will attempt to upload some photographs here. Would you just abandon them?
  18. Approximately seven years ago, I acquired a comparable camera to the one you have referenced, which is integrated into the rearview mirror casing of my E90. Although it was intended for the E90, it was far bigger than the windscreen pad and was unappealing, hence it was ultimately not installed. It included a power lead that links to the loom in the headliner, which was advantageous.
  19. Thank you, everyone. I have decided on the option 'Unlock once charged' and will evaluate its performance over the weekend.
  20. Yesterday was my first experience. I have never owned an electric vehicle before. It was also proposed to unlock many times. I will attempt it next time. Thank you
  21. Acquired my maiden electric vehicle today. The Midnight Black GT S. I conducted a 'test' charge with my Hypervolt charger, allocating just a few minutes to the schedule. The doors were ajar. Upon completion of the charging process, I had significant difficulty in extracting the cable. I attempted to lock and open the doors many times. Ultimately, it succeeded. I searched in Settings to locate the information from the online handbook on changing the charging cable lock to Never Lock. Unable to locate it. Could someone simplify this procedure for me? Where can I find the 'Never lock cable' option in the Settings? Do you have any suggestions? I understand that unlocking the doors should allow the cable to disengage, but it did not.
  22. I presume the heater is expected to get here?
