Something I missed while discussing the options was an AMG Carbon fibre Exterior Package available on the 2010-2013 E63s visible at 11:40.

Pre facelift E63 still looks the best to me. Aggressive yet still elegant. Love that the front end and four headlights make it look unique too.

You can see the overall design started subtly changing towards a more rounded design started from the 2014 facelift. i wonder will they change back to the sharp muscular look with the next generation product.

[@rix4x480]

Great video! The M157 timing chain issue was fixed in production from 2013 when both the upgraded chain and check valve style tensioner was fitted. Any timing chain issues on 13 on engines is from lack of service / oil changes and not a common fault. (Actually an issue with most late model chain driven cam cars if you neglect them)

[@lapchoine6600]

Their are a few rare options 14-16 models to get is the carbon edition for $15k and B&O sound for $5k which is well worth spending for. Great vid and love them AMG engine that is hand built to perfection.

[@YM-xe4rr]

5:33 is the most replayed part of this video. 2013 engine is when they fixed the intercooler issue (main suspect for engine catastrophe). Regarding the wagon comparison, the pre-lift 2013 front looks much more aggressive with its sharp, symmetrical lines. Do what you will with this information.

[@Khaled.3y]

Great video, I own a black 2010 W212 E63 with P30 performance package and AMG drivers package. It had its head bolts replaced while your in there when doing the timing by Tasos Moschatos. Performance pack E63 is very stiff and can get annoying. I previously owned a w211 E55.

[@carsandbikez]

How is it comoares to the E55 ? I recently bought a CLS55

[@Khaled.3y]

Responsive, Much better handling and sharper driving and fun gearshifts, E55 is more stable and comfortable at speeds above 200 km/h and is built with much higher quality parts in the interior and less plastics. Carpets in the E55 are more luxurious. Costs were cut in quality of materials but most are hidden in the E63.

[@swi01]

I also have 2011 E63 P30 and live in UAE. Is Tasos recommended? I heard he knows these cars very well.

[@Khaled.3y]

Simon Innes Yes, recommended

[@diablocls55]

[@NoWheelDrive]

I just finished watching it. Again, thank you for your great content! I've spent a while comparing differences in infotainment systems throughout the model years of W212 E-Class and I think later models have more desirable and more comfortable and more advanced systems. For example, on later models you get 360' view and better rear view on-screen parking assistant. Also large HDD etc. If I had to buy W212 I'd by 2016 S-model. Same with W221 where I prefer 2012-2013 models while earlier AMG S221 models are noticeably cheaper. I'm not sure if I ever buy a wagon. They look nice but I don't think they are better than sedans. Yes, wagons are roomier than sedans but how often do you need an extra cargo volume? I have a minivan that has much more cargo volume compared to a wagon. It's also taller. You can fit huge boxes or bicycles without removing wheels inside a minivan. This is what I call practical. Unfortunately, Benz doesn't make AMG minivans anymore. The only reason I'd buy an AMG wagon is its look. I really really like those thin and precise taillights on the S213 model. Also I'm not sure if older AMG wagon keep they value. This car will require more and more funds to keep them on the road. Also Mercedes did a fantastic job with recent MBUX when they introduced an AR HUD display. Soon driving W212 will feel like driving an early 220 S-Class with small displays which are totally useless nowadays. So in my opinion while MB is pushing technology in their newer models, older models will look more and more like dinosaurs which will only hurt their resale values. It's my personal opinion.

[@hamkha19495]

Great videos with good background information! Any plan of making a video on 550 cars with m278 motor? They are pretty underrated but can be sleepers after a tune and keep up with m157 cars.

[@Duke-ih8mo]

I was thinking the same thing

[@NoWheelDrive]

Thank you for another great video! If my CLS55 survives few years I'm definitely skipping 4th gen E-Class. I really like the 5th gen 2017-2020 and so far I'm not a fan of 2021 facelift because of its taillights and front grille. So I'm interested in understanding the difference between 17', 18', 19' and 20' models.

[@leodeng6622]

love the channel and the detail vids. What a great learning opportunity for me as I look for my own e63. I am thinking about purchasing a used 2010 model year e63 with performance package. One area that sounded weird to me was that the steering wheel feels loose when the car is completely off. You are able to move left and right for about 5 degree and there's a slight knocking sound. The dealer said this is relatively normal but I am skeptical. Would you know if this is a common issue for earlier year e63? Should I look to replace the coupling shaft? Any feedback is appreciate it!

[@timmietz]

Open Diff I had a 2012 E63. It went through two engines. The problem seem to be with those new Piezo type fuel injectors. I was going through spark plugs very fast as well. This all ended up in scoring on cylinder walls. This is all US market experience. I hear that our poor quality fuel can be the culprit. Either way, this should not have been happening

[@NoWheelDrive]

@@timmietz I feel your pain bud. I know on the other side of the ocean people Install forged sleeves when scoring happens. Though I only read and watched about Porsche 4.8 engines. I guess here it would cost a fortune. I'm glad you had a warranty which should have covered those failed engines. Eventually I'd like to get a later 1st gen 463 G-wagen but I guess I need to do more research on these M157 engines...

You said the facelift 2014 has an optional exterior carbon fiber trim package. That is true but the pre facelift 2010 to 2013 also had an optional exterior carbon fiber package and the palladium silver sedan you showed in the video at 11:44 actually has the package.

[@AMGmeister]

G Rosa Yes, that is true but I believe it was special order for 2010-2013 in the US and a normal offering for 2014+.

[@GRosa250]

AMGmeister you are incorrect. It was an SPC code (special order) in both pre facelift (2010-2013 for $3,125) and facelift (2014-2016 for $3,125) vehicles. The carbon exterior is one of several special order options (heated rear seats being another example) that requires an additional $250 charge. The charge is not added for each special order option however and only applied once regardless of how many you picked. I’ve included links to the dealer ordering guides for 2013 and 2014: mbworld.org/forums/attachments/e-class-w212/241473d1344538697-quick-diesel-question-w212-2013-ordering-guide.pdf mbworld.org/forums/attachments/e-class-w212/254619d1362503394-2014-e-class-order-guide-my14-e_wagon-dog-wo-amg-021113-5.pdf
