Mercedes-AMG M177 V8 Biturbo Engine C63 S - Taking a Closer Look

This engine isn't "One Men - One Engine" anymore :D

[@Auto_DIY]

I know this video is old but as others have mentioned in the comments, this channel is extremely underrated! Your videos are 10/10! I really appreciate all the time you put into your content, super helpful for the DIY mechs like myself.

[@zl1bandit684]

Your channel is so under appreciated!! Content is worth 100,000+ views

[@WaveCeptor22]

Thank you so much :)

[@DanielSadjadian]

Fascinating! I love this engine, great to finally see it in more detail/

[@AlbonHamburg]

Moin, danke für den Einblick. Ist ganz schön kompakt und dementsprechend verbaut. Könntest du ein Ölwechsel Tutorial für diesen Motor machen? Wäre super.

[@Schlum99]

When you pointed the camera into the intake valves I could sees some carbon buildup and also oil residue in the air intake manifold. This reminds me of my old Ford eco boost engine getting oil vapors past the rings and getting sucked back into the intake. I has to install catch cans to keep oil from getting to the intake valves and turning to carbon buildup. I assume these forced induction engines likely have the same issue.

[@zipzap5843]

Great video ! On the M177 where would the best place be to get a boost signal from?

[@asterixvsobelix-lrperf6796]

Nice video, i know it's old, but i've got a locked up M177 engine from a c63s with only 90k km on the clocks, always was followed and serviced by mercedes service center. Do you have any idea on what can cause engine locking up on those cars? I can't even rotate the crank pulley with a bar (does it need to be in neutral to try to rotate it?) I hope i dont have to replace the whole engine ;) thanks man keep up the good work

[@answer223]

Hi,WaveCeptor, I am suffering rough idle on my 2015 c63s especially on a stop when gear in D or R. Do you suggest take the front half of the car apart to access throttlebody and intake manifold to clean them? Or do you have any other suggestion? Looks like its gonna be a lot of labors from this video XD..

[@statusquoreject]

I have a 2017 C63 S coupe and have always been curious about what the assembled engine looks like out of the car. Thanks so much for this video. By the way what was wrong with the engine that it had to be removed? Did the turbo suck pieces of the ducting into the engine?

[@AoishT]

Is there any way to change the serpentine belt without removing the intercoolers for the turbos?

[@robsonrissotrainer]

How many miles had this engine? The oil filter is in the bottom now, do you have to open the dry sump when changing oil too or just the oil pan?

[@zacki5663]

is that the ECU on the drivers side? why did they make it so hard to remove, it looks like I'll need a lift just to get it out?

[@jmrandom194]

Curious how many hours it took you to remove the engine? I'm talking in total, as in the time it took to remove the entire front end of the car as well.

[@highfly4678]

The first "fat can" after turbo is catalis? Or they are down ? Near the gearbox ?

[@john-by9lu]

All the wiring is on the top left part of the engine right?

[@Mercedesdriver2012]

Servus Andreas 👍 Hätte schlimmer für den M 177 enden können 😏. Wünsche dir einen guten Start in die neue Arbeitswoche und bring den M 177, wieder an seinen Arbeitsplatz zurück 😁 Beste Grüße von Michael

[@WaveCeptor22]

Hi Michael, dem Moter geht es wieder ganz hervorragend. Ich habe heute die letzten Arbeiten abgeschlossen :) Gruß Andreas

[@Mercedesdriver2012]

Super Andreas 👍 👍 Well done 💪😁

[@mohsenkh8570]

Hi Andreas. please upload the entire video of repairing. thanks.

[@WaveCeptor22]

Hi. Sorry i didn't film the entire repairing. Sorry.

[@mohsenkh8570]

That’s ok sir. You’re the best mechanic In KZbin. Thanks for your videos.

[@narcissistinjurygiver2932]

where can i buy those fender covers?

[@Ksun_C63s]

what would cause this turbo problem? improper tune?

[@Enigma6954]

It must be next to impossible to work on without taking the engine out....!!

[@danwoods1111]

Hi waveceptor... was that turbo intake seal the cause of the turbo fail. The same type of issue seen on the v6 642 engine.

[@WaveCeptor22]

Hi Dan, yes, someone mounted the airfilterbox wrong, so the sealing was suckted by the turbo.

[@edwardmyers1746]

That looks like a nightmare also crazy to yank young motor

[@ukr9760]

How many miles had this engine?

[@sarragount5141]

Superbe vidéo dommage qu’il n’y a pas une explication en françaisOu en anglais. encore merci. 👏👍🙏

[@ljzhuang2931]

why have no new video about your A45?? i am really waiting for

[@WaveCeptor22]

All major works are done so far. So its pretty steady now.

[@ilhamd992]

Where is the number identification engine?

[@mehmetatay4766]

😍

[@dnalorreniar8797]

würdest du sagen, dass die biturbo varianten von den amgs empfindlicher sind ? also turbos usw ? oder bieten die im vergleich zum 5,5 kompressor und 6,3 sauger den selben standart den man von amg erwarten kann ? ich persönlich halte nichts von turbos da diese zu oft kaputtgehen egal welche marke während kompressoren iwie kaum probleme machen find ich

[@WaveCeptor22]

Ich denke die neuen Motoren sind nicht anfälliger wie die alten Motoren. Turbolader halten in der Regel ein Motorleben lang wenn man diese richtig behandelt. Und in diesem Fall war es menschliches Versagen bei der Montage des Luftfilterkastens sodas der Turbo beschädigt wurde. Das Problem bei diesem Motor ist das er extrem verbaut ist. Ich habe noch nie so viel Motor auf sowenig Platz gesehen. Allein die Tatsatsache, das bei der C-Klasse AMG der Vorbau um 5 cm verlängert werden musste um den Motor reinzubekommen, spricht Bände.

[@dnalorreniar8797]

WaveCeptor war doch beim w204 genauso wegen dem 6,3 und beim w203 auch beim 5,5 - hahah ja stimmt spricht bände.. ich überlege mir einen w211 mopf als 200k mit dem m271 4 zylinder zu holen aber hab viel negatives über den motor bezüglich steuerkette gehört ..... was is deine meinung dazu??

[@G63AMGG]

Roland Fichtner ja da hast du richtig gehört, hab schön 2mal m271 motoren die steuerkette gewechselt, 1x eklasse 1x cklasse lieber einen finden, der schön mal die steuerkette bei mercedes gewechselt hat. Grüß

[@chrisc1623]

Any common issues with these cars

[@kokhongthong2823]

So only the turbo are damage?And how long will take to repair?

[@WaveCeptor22]

I changed one turbo and one intercooler (because of the metal pieces). The repair last about 2 days.

[@Spirovsk]

Can you please tell me what the intercooler at 1:48 is responsible for ? Thank you

[@WaveCeptor22]

You have two different cooling systems. One for the engine and the other one for the intercoolers. In the intercooler system you got 3 radiators, one in the middle and on each side an addional one like at 1:48.

[@Spirovsk]

@@WaveCeptor22 is the one in the middle the one visible at 3:19 ? Or that is the transmission intercooler ?

[@WaveCeptor22]

Yes thats for the transmission.

[@Spirovsk]

@@WaveCeptor22 and can you tell me how many intercoolers the engine cooling system has and where they are located ? Thank you

[@WaveCeptor22]

Sorry i have to correct me. The radiator at 3:19 is not for the transmission but for the engine oil. So you have: Engine cooling system: One big radiator in the middle. The intercooling system: One big radiator in the middle and two small radiators left and right. For the air condition one radiator in the middle. For the engine oil the radiator at 3:19 and finally a small heat exchanger for the transmission oil also visible at 3:19.

[@internetnavigatora2823]

Are those valves suffering from carbon build up? If so, what has to be done?

[@WaveCeptor22]

I dont think so.

[@Fabio-vc7wn]

warum ist das passiert? oder sind die Lader generell empfindlich bei dem Motor?

[@WaveCeptor22]

Fabio G Die Wekstatt welche als letztes die Luftfilter demontiert hatte, montierte den linken Luftfilterkasten nicht richtig wodurch das Gummiteil vom Turbo angesaugt wurde. Es war also menschliches Versagen.

[@Fabio-vc7wn]

WaveCeptor traurig sowas zu sehen und schlimm das nur noch schlampig gearbeitet wird.

[@DoNKing991]

Teurer Fehler ...

[@coldblooded1886]

Alter Schwede ist das Teil verbaut, früher konnte man vorne ohne nix den Keilriemen wechseln jetzt muss man ja die zwei bescheuerte Steuergeräte da ausbauen, es sei denn man kommt von unten ran...

[@WaveCeptor22]

Jap, bisher der verbauteste Motoren von allen. Allein das die Entwickler den Vorbau um 5 cm verlängern mussten, um diesen Kameraden da reinzubekommen, sagt einiges.

[@Antimatter.]

Hi, any other damage besides the turbo ? That rubber boot was chewed up pretty good

[@WaveCeptor22]

Hi, no the rest of the engine is fine. I just changed the turbo and the intercooler.

[@darnellpage8659]

have you timed this engine yet?

[@WaveCeptor22]

No.

[@akrambalapariya6429]

hi

[@alexanderson1617]

This is your amg?

[@WaveCeptor22]

No. I have an A45 AMG.

[@DC-88]

What was the problem with the car ?

[@WaveCeptor22]

4:07 Can you see it? The tubocharger is damaged.

[@DC-88]

WaveCeptor Thx for the feedback, Nice car, job, and channel

[@GermanAngryBird]

Ist ein Motorschaden aus den Stücken geworden?

[@GermanAngryBird]

Habs fertig geguckt, aua.

[@WaveCeptor22]

Ne. Die Stücke sind im Ladeluftkühler stecken geblieben. Also Turbo und Ladeluftkühler neu und Ladeluftsystem komplett gereinigt. Mal schaun am Montag baue ich in fertig zusammen.

[@bobleponge5403]

Problème ???

[@WaveCeptor22]

damaged turbocharger

[@sinmoto1220]

6,3 amg the best

[@WaveCeptor22]

Yes 💪

[@akrambalapariya6429]

hi I am from India

[@WaveCeptor22]

Hi :)

[@xushenxin]

This engine is so complex

[@PatriotSouls]

first!!!!!!

[@sknfjuebc]

Can't even change the altenator in the mf 😅😅😅

[@stevenance3971]

Lets see. Cats and turbos right under the hood next to plastics and electronics. Electric steering. Tiny suspects bushings. Servicability nil. Another car that will never be collectable or even desirable, and likely in the junkyard in 10 years. Where did it all go wrong? Great video though. Very well done. But makes me appreciate my ancient E55.

[@meikelinde1623]

Finally a person that has the same feels.

[@alexanderson1617]

I did not understand the meaning of this video

[@WaveCeptor22]

Its just a show it off

[@DJ170]

The engine have a problem ? Why taking it out ?

[@WaveCeptor22]

Someone mounted the airfilterbox wrong, so the rubber part was sucked and that damaged the turbo.

[@biggordsampson3013]

WaveCeptor that's not good

[@patrickpierre6114]

Why was the motor removed?
