Track use for a new C63

[BENINLUX]

Hi All,

I'm picking up my new C63 from Stuttgart at the end of March, and there's a trackday at Dijon Renois I'm interested in doing which is mid-April - even before the day at Goodwood organised by Ricky!

Other than getting the engine run-in (1,000 miles I think) will the car need any additional attention? For example, I understand that the LSD oil needs to be changed fairly early on, to clear any loose bits out of there - should this be done before giving it the beans on a track? After the 1,000 mile engine run-in does it need to go back to MB for a checkup/oil change or not?


Any pointers much appreciated
Ben

As long as you dont over do it during the first 1000 miles and get the LSD oil changed at the 1000 mile mark you will be fine to take it on a track day after the first 1000 miles, and nothing else needs to be done by MB until the next service (1 year or 12k miles, depending when ASSIST tells you).

Brilliant, thanks Maff

I'll maybe pre-book a service for a few days before the trackday then, make sure I get it done before.
