All the dry sump Astons are the M178 and the wet are M177. It's not bad driving a car that shares the same engine as a Valhalla and the gearbox with a Ferrari F8.

I read the BS uses a different crank which is flat plane instead of cross plane. I’m not really sure of the advantages but apparently it doesn’t sound as V8 gruntty, not that I’d turn one down.😁

So, does the E63S have the same M178 engine as the GTC/GTR?

I do the bonnet vent which I much prefer to the ones on GTC bonnet.

When I looked at the spec I saw they were only 510hp when the 507 edition is nearly the same. For that price you could get a 5 year old GTR Pro

Can you dm me when you get a chance please.

What car are you doing the dash upgrade in?

I agree after reading all the reviews.

I am happy to have my posts stalked because at least I get replies. :cool: Yes I agree there are tons of things you could buy for these and one I like is the uprated virtual dash and centre screen.

Mine is a 2018 so maybe all the new ones don't. The DCT in the GTC is the same as the 7 speed in some of the Aston Martins and Ferraris like the 488 and F8.

Hi Derek Sorry I can’t answer your questions but I’m also interested in improving the ambient lighting in my car. I will be watching your thread to see how you go. Best of luck.

I love these threads where owners are putting in the time and effort to keep these great cars on the road and in top condition.

I am looking for a rear wing like the GTRs for my GTC convertible but it isn't an easy task with all the poor quality products out there. Ideally it needs to be carbon and I will be getting the based sprayed to match the car like most OEM ones are. This is one I found with good reviews but I am...

Can you see oil pressure on yours as a figure and not just a scale?

I have a Foxwell NT710 scanner that I will try out tomorrow to see if it shows oil pressure. I guess it will only work if there is an electronic sensor collecting that data and if so why didn't AMG have this as a read out in the first place...

Hopefully it won't be an issue for me because I have the 7spd DCT before the newer model came out.

Would a 2018 have the same CPU tuning issues. I intend to get the downpipes fitted and in the Summer an Eventuri intake. After that a custom tune to match. First thing was replacing the injectors and next is getting the solenoid mod done which I’m sure would help any mods regarding reliability.

That would be great if it does actual oil pressure and not just the alert side. Does anyone know what the app is called?

I have a fault reader which I will have a go to see what happens. Worth a try.

I am trying to do a check on my oil pressure for a 178 V8 engine and wanted to know if there is anything that could be used on a temporary basis? I did look to see if P3 did a nice vent gauge for the AMG GT platform but they only do them for A and B series models which is probably due to economy...
