I’ve been having some issues lately selecting reverse, drive and park with my 2014 E63, I can only select R when in D for example by switching off the engine and then switching it back on. Same from R to D. Pressing P doesn’t work at all. Sometimes it will work as normal. In S + it also seems like it’s struggling to select the right gear and the car can feel jerky. Anyone else experienced this type of thing?
I’ve booked it in with Mercedes Newcastle for tomorrow who seem to think it’s a software issue. I told the technician the car is still under warranty and he said it doesn’t cover diagnostic or software updates, which start at £99 per hour, is that true?
They are very helpful as always and someone come out to have a look straight away and said if I could wait a week or so they would get it in and give me a courtesy car, but I have the use of other vehicles. He also said if it’s just a software update they will carry it out in th price of the diagnostic.
They also replaced the batteries in my keys and said they will inflate the tires up to the right air pressure as they are showing up on the dash to be short of a fe PSI in each corner.
Just as jiggly and hopefully maybe nothing is turning on full lock in reverser or forward at low speeds there is a slight noise which feels like sometimgnis rubbing. Don’t know if it’s the steering or suspension. This isn’t a 4matic E63 so it’s not crabbing issues.
