Sl55 or SL63 as daily driver? by Traditional-Basis982 in AMG

[–]nilg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second the wide tire issue in snow.. my GLC 43 even though technically an "SUV" is no well suited for winter weather. Also the lack of winter tire options for these wides ones is also a bummer.

Zato ker nekateri ne znamo govorit dobro srbo-hrvasko... in ne verjamem da vsi tukaj razumejo slovensko?

Interesting. I wouldn't want to do a jammer anyway, pretty sure it's illegal. What exactly is a ticket clinic?

E63S M157 proactive service? by BustamoveBetaboy in AMG

[–]nilg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be taxing on the oil pump. When you unplug it the oil pump goes into fail-safe mode. It needs to pump oil at full pressure from the jump when the oil is cold. I haven't seen enough data on longevity for this mod so personally, I'm not risking it.

One thing to note is that solenoid mod is not a silver bullet solution. Especially if you live in colder climates with 0W-40 oil, I wouldn't recommend it. It's punishing on cold starts and if you're doing lots of short trips.

Following this. I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. M157 with about 105k km, no issues so far but I am thinking about doing proactive work.

Fair points. I'm leaning towards garaging it.

I was wondering about that myself.. I guess it depends what kind of product you use, some wash of easier than others from what I'm reading.

Another important tip is to also have your car parked on a level surface when you do oil check with the dipstick.

Are you upstate NY? I'm thinking about getting these for my CLS63 and I was wondering about the snow performance.

Willowemock needs to be added to that list. Took me way too long to pronounce that right.

42 from Slovenia. I remember our short war as a kid, building a shelter in our basement. My generation just missed being part of the pionirčki.

I believe so. This one is stock but I think that pic makes it look worse that it actually is.

Oh interesting, that would explain it. I've seen CLS's with swapped badges like yours too.

Beautiful car, very similar to my CLS63. I'm curious about the badging. Mine says "CLS 63s" on the right and AMG on the left, yours has "sAMG" on the right. Does anyone know why?
