Totally unrelated to this, but what is the dual knob to the right of the lighting controls? The knob itself controls chirp volume, and the 3-position ring turns on an orange or green light, and shoots two blue LEDs on the instrument cluster at me while chirping. Everything about it seems like some kind of radar, but my manual has nothing to say about radar. I’m about halfway through reading it. Thanks!

Makes you question MercedesBenz/AMG's engineering credentials when they develop super engineered(aka super expensive) engines with all kinds of moving parts and they cannot even properly engineer something as simple as a bolt. Pay more, get less. Mercedes should have been class action sued for this and made to replace the bolts under a lifetime warranty. That is a massive job to undertake for their failure to properly engineer a bolt.

Glad to help. AMG owners can argue about hp or which engine is the best, but one thing we all agree on is that m156 was the best sounding AMG. Check out the c63 or E63 with headers videos I have.

Noone asked nor mentioned is it recommended to change it to N when you are waiting, for example for a red light. I practice to change it to N when I know I will wait more than 10,20 seconds, because of heat generating in torque converter. Otherwise, when I am in dense traffic with short stops, I don't move it from D. Someone says this should be done, someone says not, but my logic is why to torture it when you know that you will be at standstill for half a minute or minute, change it to N to let it "relax"... I see you are well informed about those stuff, i will like to hear your opinion.
@AccentOnCars
@AccentOnCars 9 күн бұрын
That’s a good question. I put it in neutral only if the stopping time is more than a minute. For example, if the traffic fully stopped or there is a train passing. I don’t shift into neutral on red lights and stuff. The computer does all necessary things for you. Actually, I read that you “hurt” more by frequent shifts from D-N-D as the converter and engines are out of sync when in N, and shifting into D causes a minor slippage until the clutch locks. In a nutshell, don’t overthink it. Enjoy it.
