Good video! I have a 2015 E63S wagon that we’ve been building for our channel, and I’m definitely going to use this video in the future.

[@michaelsherwood3047]

Respect to Kenny, all good things E63 W212 👍

[@axs7689]

New Video! Man you have no idea I use your videos so much. Thank you for helping keep my 2014 E550 money pit on the road.

[@mattcoffren9797]

Nice vid your vids gave me the courage to take on the downpipes in my CLS63s. Now I have the tune with it, I did the oil pressure trick and last I’m about to do the intercooler mod. it’s a high ten second 4 door. Hellcat Killa. One day I’ll do the E85 tune. Gives u almost stage two power with no mods. Keep doing the Benz videos love them

[@EnjoytheMoments]

Good job, Kenny! 🔥

[@anthonywilliams4100]

Did the oil flow mod = SMOOTHER & QUIETER, with no issues other than the soft code that dose NOT turn on the C E L. But MB has issued a emissions related update for the M278/157, the update turns the soft code into a hard C E L code. Working with my tuner after the holidays to turn it off.

[@gibshall2007]

Love this. Thank you for the effort!

Thanks, I didn’t know that my 14 E63 has the rare split rim , I thought they are ugly

[@supadave41]

Much appreciated video covering everything 👏 What cell count are the catted downpipes? I can probably check that vidoe again to see, but I'm lazy 😒

I noticed that at 14:03, you said the car has coils in the front and bags in the back. If you watch my recent video of our E63 wagon reveal, I’m sure you’ll see that the front is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than it should be from factory. I was under the impression that the car had air suspension on all four corners and the previous owner had manually set the ride height to as low as possible. When I put the car in the sport plus handling mode, I thought I noticed the front end raising and or lowering upon activation or deactivation. Am I just convincing myself this is happening, or is it possible that my 2015 E63S has an electronic front lift or front air suspension? Our car has been modified, but not to the extent where I would’ve thought it already had aftermarket front coilovers/springs installed on it.

[@ExoticCarDIY]

No, the E63 is on steel could in the front and bags in the rear. So you're wagon must already have kw/h&r/rentech could up front. The e550 is on air all 4 concerned and the other models can be either all air or coils. Placing the car and either sport or comfort will only raise the rear in your E63

[@roshavstich2722]

Is the coding the same on the cls w218 (for the ILS)

[@ExoticCarDIY]

No, the names of the options will be different. Not sure if it's possible, but should be

[@HirschPower]

What editing software do you use? I would love for my videos to look at good as yours do.

[@ExoticCarDIY]

DaVinci resolve

[@adamrocamora9707]

Awesome video as always! I was wondering what you recommend more - the H&R lowering springs or the KW height adjustable spring kit you installed on your red E63. I’m looking to lower the front end and I’m curious to what you’d recommend. I drive a 2014 E63 - I actually think you’re the one who coded ILS on my car (matte grey used to be owned by an MB tech, I’m pretty sure I saw my car in your wheel video). Thanks!

[@ExoticCarDIY]

I like the adjustability of the k&w personally. The h&r is very low. If you're okay with very low they are a great value

[@iluvtorace4786]

​@@ExoticCarDIYhow is the ride comfort on the coilovers? Is there a noticeable difference?

[@ExoticCarDIY]

@@iluvtorace4786 h&r may have been slightly stiffer, but I had no complaints with either

[@adamrocamora9707]

@@ExoticCarDIYDid you have any rubbing or clearance issues with either setup?

[@ExoticCarDIY]

@@adamrocamora9707 none at all

[@damytzeus]

how do you fix the lag when depressing the accelerator pedal?

[@HirschPower]

It’s possible I may have misunderstood your section about the intakes. Our E63S already has catless downpipes and a midpipe resonator delete with a stage 1 tune from Weistec. Would you still recommend the intakes if we were NOT going to re-tune the car after the installation?

[@ExoticCarDIY]

I recommend the intake for tuned cars, I do not recommend then for stock cars. I think the general consensus is you do not have to have it retuned, but if you have a customizable tomb, they can tweak it if you tell them you have intakes

[@malloymotorsports780]

send me your vin to check for the cylinder head warranty extension

[@axs7689]

Id like to point you to air intake by Tuned Mercedes for a lower price point.

[@markmef5562]

can you provide us more info on this please! thanks

[@ExoticCarDIY]

Agree, never heard of it.
