Regardless of the season change she always looks so good.

I love this season! 🍁🍃🍂

CLE 53 AMG

... electric GTs stocked up, presumably for shipping to AMG Experiences

Recently purchased a 2025 CLE53. Added H&R height adjustable springs and 21” Vossen HFX-2 wheels. Chrome delete on the front emblem and door handles.

PSA for anyone considering aftermarket wheels: Be very careful with your offset. The wheel hub height on this car is 15mm. If you end up needing spacers, you will have a 10mm “dead zone”. You can only go +3, +5 (slip on) or +15 and above. No +8, +10, +12, etc.

2018 AMG GT-S 17k miles, first transaxle car, equipped with steel brakes, I’m still learning my way around these. Tires are also new, with about 1,000 miles on them and aligned to factory spec by MB service.

I’ve noticed a faint mechanical noise when decelerating off-throttle between roughly 1,500 - 1,000 RPM. I’ve tested it in gear and in neutral, and the noise is present either way. It’s most noticeable when slowing down for a stop sign or taking a slow corner. It’s also easier to hear with the exhaust valves fully open.

My first thought is that it could be something related to the exhaust valves, but I’m curious whether anyone has experienced something similar or has ideas about whether it could be coming from the transaxle or rear differential.

I know diagnosing a sound over the internet is a long shot, but I’d appreciate any input from other AMG owners before I start chasing it down.

Can't decide 😂 What's your choice?

Greetings all I picked up a used e53 2022 low mileage last week and been having soo much fun with it but there seem to be something i still don’t understand. Sometimes when i’m revving it it pops and bangs at high rpm almost at all gears whenever I’m accelerating and letting off the gas. But most times it only pops when shifting at mid to high rpm only and it doesn’t when revving the engine. Is there a trick here ? Or is that something i should learn more about? Anyway thanks for reading and i’ll be sharing my journey with this lovely car here

It looks like she is actually inside of Starbucks. Anyway, I thought it looked kind of cool.

Hope everyone has a great day and week!

177,xxx miles and sounding very strong. Click clacking away into 400+ hp. Might new pulleys soon though. Where are my fellow M113k guys at

Had a visit to Mercedes-Benz World at Brooklands last weekend and wow, what an unbelievable day.

I booked the 1-hour driving experience and had the opportunity to tske the new C63 S E Performance out on their track. As a current W205 C63S coupe owner, I was eager to see how the modern 4-cylinder hybrid setup would translate compared to my V8.

If you are on the fence about doing one of the driving experiences, just do it. The instructors actually encourage you to properly explore what the car can do.

There are several different tracks you go out on:

• The Handling Circuit: Coming out of the corners, the instant torque from that electric motor is savage, the throttle response is immediate—there is zero lag. It is a heavy car on paper, but it handles the weight incredibly well. It felt noticeably more planted and precise through the tight corners than my W205 and you could lean on it more and more without any concern, the grip was astonishing.

• The Wet Skid Pan: Turning off the traction control on the low-friction surface was an absolute blast, the new car's advanced 4MATIC system gives you a completely different kind of control. The instructor helped me find the exact balance to keep the saloon drifting smoothly, showing just how clever the tech is in drift mode.

• The Dynamic Straight - Wet and Dry track setups: Launching this thing is a trip. The combination of the turbo and battery deployment leaves you pinned to the performance seats in a way that feels almost digital compared to the linear power delivery I am used to. The braking performance on the wet track was staggering and interesting to see how the car performed when turning off the driver aids.

An hour was the right amount of time to cycle through the different tracks and test all the drive modes. While I will always love the soul and sound of my W205 C63S, the sheer engineering and technical capability of the new E Performance platform blew me away on track.

Any other owners made the trip to Brooklands to try the new car, I'd love to hear if it changed your perspective on the 4-cylinder hybrid setup!?

I’m looking at a 2025 Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 with about 12k miles listed for $68,667. It’s a Mercedes CPO car, but the Carfax shows a minor accident/damage report.

The car was originally around $80k MSRP and is well optioned, so the price seems decent, but I’m mainly worried about future resale/trade-in value.

For those who have bought or sold a CPO luxury car with a minor accident on its history:

How much did the accident hurt the resale or trade-in value later?

Would you expect a minor accident to reduce the value by a few percent, or much more?

Does the fact that it passed Mercedes CPO make you more comfortable with it?

How much cheaper would it need to be than a comparable clean-Carfax CLE 53 for you to consider it worth buying?

Would you buy it at $68,667, or hold out for a clean-history example?

Out of the blue - since a week or so (somewhat after B1 service) when connected to my phone my Burmester system does random loud sharp cracking noises, after a few asynchronous loud cracks the sound cuts out completely. I need to change playlists or stations several times and then the sound returns. Turned the bluetooth on my phone off, cracking stopped. Latest iOS 27.0.1

I did ask the dealer if B1 may have caused it, they responded no, as B1 quote "mechanical and not electrical". This morning, I got a notification - communication module software update installed. Was hopeful for the issue to go away - it did not. So, somehow it is between my iPhone 16 ProMax and MBUX.

Anyone experienced this? That is a HUGE annoyance ....

2019 Glc 63 non-S as the S suv isn’t sold in US :/

Surely someone in our community has dealt with the M177’s ignition coil recall? Slowly noticed it missing and it finally threw the P0306 code for cylinder 6 misfire. Threw it on my obd2 reader and seen a few other misfires. Just did the plugs (yes to indexed tq) so I assume it’s due to the coils. A/F was still normal don’t see any other potential reasons, and no other codes.

I assume since this will be covered by warranty for the recall that they cover towing. My question is since the code only threw for one cylinder will they still replace all the others since there are misfires there as well? What are others experience in dealing with this

After a long time of wait with all the stuff done, PPF, paint match, tint, windshield accident, reinstallation, tint again.

She’s finally ready for me to pick her ass up.

Come home to daddy. 😈

I've been working on the front bumper for a couple of weeks now. After countless adjustments, trying to make fenders and bumper/grill fit with each other, I ended up cutting and re-fiberglassing the fenders to line up straight with the hood. After that, I built up fiberglass around the passenger side headlight to fill the atrocious gap that was there prior. I tried to make the grill fit better with the fiberglass bumper but ultimately decided it was easier to make a mold off my original bumper and fiber glass it to the WB bumper. I'm very pleased with the rough fitment it gave me. Sorry, it's been a minute without an update, but it took me a bit to get a grasp on how to tackle this front end and how to work with fiberglass effectively. Finally, I feel like I have a solid game plan. Results should be coming much more quickly.

Looking around for winter tires on my CLS55 AMG but I don’t know exactly what kind to get. Just wanna know which setup is best to still get okay-ish performance and good traction

Considering Porsche and McLaren are bringing back their manuals, while Ferrari is experimenting with a drive by wire "manual" in the 12Cilindri, this could be an easy way to boost sales of high margin performance models.

Imagine a GT63 with a six speed gated manual. I think it would sell like hotcakes.
