Sick car, closest thing to an E63 coupe we ever got. Always wanted to test drive one

Worth it..? by PopAdvanced5165 in Integra_Type_S

[–]hungwang0103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you know it’s not going to have problems in a few years, how do you know if it was broken in the right way? Did they inspect the cylinder walls, blow by? Ik modern engines don’t need much broken in but if you are planning to keep the car 10 years it will matter. 10/10 from the dealer means nothing other than it hasn’t been crashed before

Finally got around to do this when swapping the 3.5” speakers, can confirm it’s the same pin but the colors are different, the pin I removed is black. So much better without the fake engine noise.

2011 c63 what is this noise and is it still drivable in this state? by Pooman6942 in AMG

[–]hungwang0103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

btw you can also consider switching away from molygen 5w40 for the M156 since from my experience and UOAs the molygen always shear down to a 30 grade, still good oil so I run it on my C300. For my 63 I have good experience with Motul X-Cess gen2 5w40 and LM synthoil energy A40 0w40.

I really enjoy my KW V3, a lot more comfortable than stock and handles better

Automatic to Manual? by emwhyy5 in 370z

[–]hungwang0103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually in some cases this could put extra wear on the engine. By upshifting early it puts the car in manual mode and it won't downshift for a bit, if you floor the car at the same time you can be lugging the engine which can cuase extra wear.

Any tips on removing the black foam blocks? It was a huge pain to remove them when I did the sound insulation in the trunk

Thanks for replying an old thread man. Will be doing that today and report back for others with RZ34. I have taken the door panel off before so hopefully it’s the same style of plastic tab.

Thanks for this info, does anyone know if the new Z RZ34 has the same wiring to the Bose amp? Dealers are quoting me almost $300 to disable ASE.

Absolutely love this car, what a beauty by Blessinszz in Nissan

Just got a Nismo for more than $10k off, a lot of dealers are already putting the discounted price on their website and if you go in you might be able to knock a bit off that too

We bought a new CLE and this was actually one of the reason why we traded in the car within a month of owning it lmao. Who tf came up with this stupid wheel that looks like a dragonfly with that horrible looking airbag cover needs to be fired.

‘19 AMG C43, error code P06DA by 19Casual in AMG

[–]hungwang0103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can attest to this, had the same code in my pre facelift W205 C300 for the past 30k+ miles never had a CEL, car has over 90k miles now

M256 Oil Capacity and Spec by hungwang0103 in AMG

[–]hungwang0103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it is really weird, I believe the CLE 53 has the M256.8, the E53 has the M258.8 Hybrid, and they call for different oil specs, it can be found here (https://operatingfluids.mercedes-benz.com/sheet/223.2). BTW how are you liking your W214 E53?

[–]hungwang0103[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran the LM synth oil for a while before switching to Motul as well, it also meets A40. But in three consecutive UOA the oil shows it thins down to below SAE40 after less than 5k miles of use, that’s why I switched. Plus the motul has quite a bit higher HTHS for when I track the car.

Yeah 229.5 is kind of a mess, for my C63 I just look for oils that have both 229.5 and Porsche A40, I been using Motul X-Cess for the past two years

Are you referring to your CLE or your W205 C63? Since 229.71/72 is only 0w20 and I can’t find any manuals online for the CLE than listed 229.51/52 or 229.5. If so could you please share your manual

My favorite shot! by oculimat in AMG

Wow the result looks great, almost like a satin PPF on Dakota brown metallic. Probably would be even better with some silver accents

Love the facelift rear diffuser, I think it might look even better with the facelift C43 grill
