    E500 Service & Warranty M278 Engine

    I also have a 2012 4.7l biturbo coupe and have now decided to not continue my MB service plan and MB extended warranty as the costs have increased. I will be looking at a Mercedes specialist from now on and the car has proved so far to be extremely reliable and economical. Having used various MB...

    Cold start exhaust sound?

    Guys When I cold start my E500 coupe (4.7 biturbo) I get a really nice throaty V8 burble but after a short time it quietens down to a very quiet burble. What is going on, is there a valve or some kind of bypass in the exhaust/manifold/engine? I would really like to keep the cold start burble...

    M278 engine

    It's a great underrated engine with huge torque with very impressive fuel consumption. It's the little brother engine to the amg 63 (5.5TT) without the the running costs. With an ECU tune you can get the amg 63 (500+hp/700+tq) levels of power but I haven't gone that route because it has enough...

    Quaife LSD C207 E500

    I also have a a 2012 E500 4.7 biturbo and had Birds fit a Quaife LSD and the difference is a massive improvement in traction As you well know these engines put out huge amounts of low down torque and even driving gently would loose traction easily. the car is now far safer to drive especially...

    C207 E500 Discs

    You need to measure the diameter of the disc if like mine (TT4.7) they are 360mm then they are the same as the base older c63 But the price from Mercedes isn't as bad as I had expected

    C63 Genuine wheels - 18's with free new tyres!

    cancel that last question as I have found i only have the tyre pressure monitoring which doesn't use the sensors but instead uses the abs system to give deflation warning! Regards Martyn

    The E500 Cabriolet / Coupe Thread

    Excellent choice I've enjoyed my E500 4.7TT coupe for over 4 years now Super reliable and with that very underrated beast of a V8 engine. Has proved very economical for a big V8 Highly recommend adding a Quaife diff, makes a massive improvement to traction with all the available torque!

    LSD Aftermarket

    I've had my Quaife ATB (LSD) supplied and installed by Birds a couple of weeks ago and the experience and service was faultless. The car now finds traction rather than flashing dash lights at me! Highly recommended, you wont be disappointed Martyn

    E500 Owners

    Absolutely nothing has gone wrong apart from the well documented DAB radio issue which has finally been sorted with the mb software update. On a motorway run I regularly can get 30+ mpg Andy even around town I can get 25+ mpg. Not bad for a 400+hp torque monster. I think all e500's comes...

    E500 Owners

    I have a 2012 e500 coupe 4.7 bi turbo and absolutely love it I've had it 3+ years now and I spent 18 months finding this car. I only came across 2 other coupes and 1 convertible 4.7 bi turbo in my hunt. There were far more e500 coupe 5.5l normally aspirated available. So the e500 coupe 4.7 bi...
