    E63 brake calliper

    There seems to be plenty of places out there, just thought I might try to get another calliper, swop over and then I can repair the other at my leisure whilst keeping the car on the road and sell on the calliper once sorted.

    Thanks, I like the look of that.

    E63 brake calliper

    I thought about arguing the point but they have already said its just one of those thing, no ones fault as such, although I still wouldn't expect this on a 4 year old 'premium' vehicle.

    E63 brake calliper

    Hi all, I had the car serviced a couple of weeks ago incl. a brake fluid change. The garage snapped off one of the bleed nipples in the process. A bit of a long shot but would anyone have a R/H front calliper, 2014 E63 model laying around they may be looking to sell? Mark.

    E63 - How noisy is it?!

    They are loud, more bass than the camera picks up, but not an unpleasant noise.

    Service - Main dealer vs Specialist

    I use Tim Purlsow in Hook for both the C63 and the current E63. Service history kept up to date with the factory, all MB parts etc, free courtesy car and great service.

    Facelift w204 C63 - track cooling

    Fair enough, just offering info based on my experiences. That's a nice simple mod do you know if anyone has done similar for the E63?

    Facelift w204 C63 - track cooling

    I had this with my 2012 C63 saloon at the Nurburgring, only managed around 3/4 of the track before the gearbox overheated, along with engine oil temp of 129 C. On the right side of the bumper there is the grill with oil cooler behind it. There is a rubber surround with 'fingers' over the face of...

    E63 rear tyres, runflats?

    Thanks for the replies on this, I've just ordered a full set of Eagle F1 asymmetric 3s. After the service last week, tax and insurance next week its a fairly costly toy at the moment!

    E63 rear tyres, runflats?

    Hi, Yes, been over them today still plenty left, although less on the inside edge. The rears have around 4mm in the centre and nothing left at all on the insides.

    E63 rear tyres, runflats?

    I thought that might be the case, hence the question, I'll scrub that idea then. Interesting what you say on the Goodyears as they are significantly cheaper too. What did you run on the front at the time? The Continentals on the front of mine are still fine and I don't really like mixing brands...

    W204 C63 or w212 E63?

    212 E63 for me. We had a 204 C63 saloon for 2 years and it was great, but, the E63 is a step up in almost every way except maybe that I miss some of the rawness the C63 had. The E63 is more extreme Jekyll and Hyde from super sedate cruiser to absolute beast and it carries is size very well, the...

    E63 rear tyres, runflats?

    Hi All, I need to get a pair of tyres for the rear of our 2014 E63. I'm going to stick with the Contis 5s but does anyone know if the MOE SSR runflat spec fits OK?
