DO NOT BUY A S CLASS SEDAN OR COUPE?

[@dealsdubai]

Hi i chk out 2015 S coupe. My mechanic said he thinks there is gaskit leak, but i am keen to buy one used version as it is less KM . Can this be easily repaired if i have extended warranty?

[@3DThaRapstar]

Yes it is covered under warranty, the cost can be pricey tho if you need a new engine harness etc, the price can range from 10k to 16k if the engine has to come out for the job to be done, a good alternative would be to have mechanic clean out the ecu if it’s caught early enough, drain the ecu of the oil and put new cam seals on and you might be good, if not yes the warranty should repair that bill, and yes it would be a good buy, just wondering how long the oil leak has been going on? But yes if it’s not just oil and gasket it’s still covered

@@3DThaRapstar hi thanks for your reply. I am getting less driven less then 25k , 2015 S550 coupe for USD 58k. Is it good price ? And if drive it for 3 years with less then 60k , at what price can I sell it ? Just asking ..

[@3DThaRapstar]

@@dealsdubaithat is a good price because of the lower mileage and if you keep it low then yes. You can get a great deal when it’s time to sell but they will always depreciate because of them just getting older and the maintenance prices but yes you should be good

my s65 coupe is the best car I've ever owned. I have put over 110k miles on it in 3.5 years now and it runs great still :D . I drive her HARD too :)

[@3DThaRapstar]

Yessir facts, they are a beast, please be aware of this problem and regularly check your cam seals for leaks

[@bigboicreme]

​​​@@3DThaRapstaryessir I have a 2013 CLS63 AMG with the oil in harness problem that I repaired myself. Great informative video!!! Many people don't know this happens !! Thank you again for spreading the awareness

[@John-yh7th]

Yeah these cars are the big dogs my favorite benz is definitely the S coupe tho

[@Twopplgreyjackets]

Thanks for staying consistent bro, working to get my s together. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🏅 need to stay occupied

Yessir let me know and thx 💯

There is actually a way around that issue (somewhat). The issue is that the camshaft positioning sensors and the camshaft solenoids do tend to leak after a while and cause “wicking”, the way around that is to buy the new revised camshaft positioning sensors, (the green lined ones) that should stop/lower the chance of it leaking and new camshaft solenoids, and buy some “pig tails” aka harness extenders as a preventative maintenance for both the solenoids and the sensors, the harness help by giving you some extra time to check for leaks before it’s too late and if a leak is found, you just replace the parts and the harness to protect the ecu,(I recommend checking these every oil change just to be on the safe side) sadly there is no permanent fix but doing this can save you from spending 10k plus by only spending around 700 bucks. You can buy everything that I listed at fcp euro, except the pig tails for the camshaft positioning sensors, you can find some on eBay, also fcp euro has warranty on almost everything so if your parts start to leak and you need new ones, they cover your next one free. That’s what I did and HIGHLY recommend everyone do.

4:48 some of these mechanics are just full of shit because you could take a Mustang with the same problem lift the engine up and it’ll be $700 but just because it’s a Benz they want to charge a mahfucker up

[@phosoup1540]

Facts. I had the wiring harness for my Alfa Romeo Giulia replaced because chipmunks had chewed up the cables. It was $650 out the door with labor.

Greeting from Connecticut, I have arrived. I finally got the S class Ruby Black with peanut butter guts, Designo package,High End Burmester system with 33k 2015 with an after marker warranty. Connecticut OG on Board. G's Up!!!!

[@3DThaRapstar]

Yessir, congrats 🙌 welcome, your going to love the car

[@matthewbeach1001]

can you link that other video for the cam seal problem, please? Thanks in advance, BENZMAN!

[@3DThaRapstar]

Bro type in “s class oil in wiring harness” it should be the first video, it’s happening to the coupe and sedans AMG and non amg

[@Footballreels510]

Thx for the info fam appreciate that 💯, the S coupe is the best coupe comfort, speed all that I don’t like the look of the gt and the e and c are too small not boss like, the new cle is ehhhh at best

[@aryub5851]

I just rent one and drive it for a week and that enjoyment gets faded 😅

[@gianmariamalmesi4133]

I can't believe Mercedes hasn't solved this problem, same issue happened in the small 1.8 l kompressor engine M271 (not commercialized in the Americas) and is well known, oil basically run up the cable from the camshaft sensor to the ECU.

[@3DThaRapstar]

Yeah it’s crazy, I remember seeing a little smoke every now and then and couldn’t pinpoint where it was coming from

[@gianmariamalmesi4133]

@@3DThaRapstar I'll stick to my CL 550 ( CL 500 in Europe) equipped with the fantastic M273 V8 naturally aspirated engine, it's gonna be a highly desirable classic in a few years

[@benjamingenous4889]

Who did you get your extended warranty thru was it very expensive?

[@3DThaRapstar]

Dang bro I forgot, but I got the car at a Porsche dealer that sold it when I got the car, it came with a 3 year extended warranty aftermarket warranty but reputable I will find the name for you soon, but all in all I got it for nothing because nothing happened to mine, but it’s good to have as a piece of mind

Yo, where did you find the black emblem for the grill?

[@3DThaRapstar]

We wrapped it

[@jeromegriffiths2086]

Does this apply to the cl 550. 2009

[@3DThaRapstar]

No you should be good In the CL, but what you have to look out for is that suspension bro, that ABC is no joke and can cost upward of 4 grand, also motor mounts and parking brake failure. I miss my CL I got plenty on the channel but sadly for me it was reliable but cost me a ton of money to repair

[@jazznjayy]

warranty dnt cover seals

[@3DThaRapstar]

It does actually but eventually it will happen again, they are saying it’s a fix for it but not from Mercedes it’s a aftermarket fix

[@TheT1r1]

I got a full tank of gas in my E-Class Benz!!

[@3DThaRapstar]

🎶 💯 🤴

[@bigt86gn]

so moral of the story is get that fixed asap think

[@3DThaRapstar]

Yes, but what’s scary is sometimes you won’t know until it’s too late, and will need a new engine harness, but yes correct and it’s showing up on lots of theses cars, it’s crazy, I remember my check engine light came on and I would see smoke every now and then, I even went to a shop and they found nothing wrong it was my bruh that actually found it and yes it is a very crazy repair
