I just bought a 68,000 mile 2009 C63 AMG for crazy cheap because the previous owner listed the car as having major engine issues that could cost many thousands of dollars to fix. Mercedes and AMG had many issues with this M156 engine when it first came out so it wasn't crazy for the previous owner to assume it needed work but I was able to fix this one in 30 minutes and with $150 in parts.
Here's a video on all the major M156 factory defects.

    Been seriously considering a c63 lately, when I do get one I'll be watching your whole catalouge to see all the frequent issues

    I would love the c63 or any 63 minus the head bolt issues. Lots of power for a bargain.

    This is what happens when you Google your own diagnosis. And you don't take it in to an honest mechanic to have it properly diagnosed. Should have taken it into Scotty Kilmer.

    I still can't believe Mercedes keeps using those crappy plastic parts that break like that. I work with Mercedes since 1970 and I saw the cars changed over the years. I started everything was made out of metal. Yes they were heavy like tanks but they lasted forever and could always be repaired or rebuilt. They were not throw away cars. As soon as I started seeing plastic parts come in I knew Mercedes was going downhill. I can't believe they still would have cylinder head bolt issues with the cars. They had those problems in the 80s when they went to aluminum blocks. We did a lot of jobs with timeserts and new style head bolts. You would have thought that they would have stopped making engines with issues like that. You buy a AMG has the plaque with hand-built by so-and-so. Well I wouldn't want to put my name on it if I knew that these cars were going to have issues like that. The engine sounds fine you don't need to open it up. But if you want to remove the valve covers check all the timing chain components make sure none of the plastic rails are broken that would be okay. Motor sounds fine. Get rid of the exhaust put the factory exhaust back on with the electronic cut out if you want to open up for loudness. Definitely clean up the car get rid of the Hokey stickers and different colors put it back to the clean stock look. Do some subtle modifications. A loud exhaust like that definitely only belongs on the racetrack. Not on the streets. I know cops that'll pull you over and give you a ticket.

    What a steal

    It's surely no oil that burns… Oil would be blue. It's just water that condensed in the heated exhaust system. I noticed the same on my 2010 C63 performance when I was driving short distances mostly. No problems whatsoever after a good old run on the Autobahn. 🙂 Best wishes from Germany

    Those cars must be the pinnacle of human engineering achievements, and no we did not go to the moon.

    So far your biggest problem is only the engine mount. You got a great deal!!!👍🏾

    Ok, it actually sounds really good in the last scene. Would you guys change the exhaust?
