I was stuck behind one the other day and turned the radio off just to listen to the cars exhaust roar..

Scottish C63 owner here. Love my car, had it over 4 years now…the longest I’ve owned a car. Sounds great, love the style, smooth runner and a solid build. Don’t see me selling it any time soon.

Probably one of the best and most useful videos on the W204 C63 I have ever seen!

[GeesDrive]

I have a real soft spot for the C63, especially in estate setup. They still look pretty fresh today. Top vid sir.

Just sold mine after a year and a half of ownership for a 6k profit ! Great cars obviously heavy on fuel consumption and repairs can be expensive. Still have a set of winter tyres and alloys wheels if anyone’s interested in them 😃

I have a 2009 and it was a wonderful reliable car. No head bolts issues up to this day. Nothing broken except maintenance service

I had two issues with my 2014 C204 C63:
1. Two cracked wheels. Apparently the factory tyres were run flat, so they stood no chance in the UK with all our pot holes and the tiny profile of the wheel.
2. Leaky / Cracked left hand side cam shaft cover. Replaced both of them. Oil was seeping onto the manifold and made a bit of mess over time!

Was expecting this to be from like 2015 but it’s from a month ago. Glad the w204 is still getting it’s shine

[JustinSmithPYRO]

Great info. I own a 2014 2 dr. Had it about 18 months now. No issues thankfully. Just a pure joy to drive

[Mylo]

My dad has one of these C63s and we love it but what it does have is a LSD which is really good so thank you for brining it up because its important and great video

[francisong]

You gotta love the W204 C63 especially the Edition 507, it is one of the best cars AMG has ever made.
Super car performance with everyday practicality.
Last of the 6.2 litre V8
Future classic.
Too bad they are so rare.

Just bought mine in estate form, loving it .. Favourite car I’ve owned . Great video 👍

The headbolt issue is greatly overstated. All the cars that suffered from this have either been fixed or are not a problem. This only happened to a very few amount of cars. Probably less than 1% of cars.

Post facelift also had high engine oil temps in water climates, as the oil cooler was not upto scratch cooling the oil.
These run alot of negative camber, so even though at first glance the tires may look ok (on the rear), but dont be surprised if they are completely bald on the inside :)
Post face lift with the black plastic head covers are prone to cracking and leaking oil. Not expensive, but a PITA to change.

I average 11mpg to 14mpg around town.
About 24 to 27mpg on a run.

260miles is the best ive had to a full tank
160 miles is the worst to a full tank! £105.
They only run on Super, and ive found Tesco 99 is the best for mine, makes the throttle feel sharper, feels keener to pull in gears.
Fabulous cars, get one now, because they will only go up in value, and we wont see a car like it ever again, with 6.2 V8.😎

I drove one of these C63 W204 AMGs, Im not a AMG fan, but I just like this one model in particular. I most definitely might get one, but I need space first! Good review sir! I don't want to get a new motor or gearbox!

[BCFITTY]

The best sounding C63 made and such a timeless body style 💪🏼😎👍🏼

[dritson]

Firstly what a great video one of the best! Engine and transmission wise I've been lucky with mine only bills ive had aside regular servicing was for normal wear and tear failed items in the suspension. Only major expense an electric tailgate mechanism (lock) failure this year at around £800.

[TheClassifiedMan]

Nice one lad, mechanic here you covered the lot mate🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👌

[cleansweepbayarea]

You for got a few things like cam shaft adjuster, intake manifold, motor mounts, pulley failure due to them being plastic. From 40k miles to 75k I spent $25k in repairs (on 1 car) not maintenance. Another thing is must do oil changes every 2500 to 3000 mile these engines are very moody with oil. My advice comes from experience and help from my master AMG tech and engine builder with 30 years in the game + SLR training). He has built a few AMGs for me starting with my C43 20 years ago. I highly recommend getting warranty which you can get even if the car is 10 years old, it’s worth it to spend the $5k get 5 years of warranty. However don’t let this scare you I have three these cars (11’ ML63, CLKBS, 11’ C63) and it is unlikely I would sell them, ever.
