2014 E63S transmission mount
I had just done this on my S550. It was easy and cheap and is, in fact, the same W221 part. I would say overall similar results. Old one seemed squished and there are some modest smoothness improvements. I was also curious if the driveline angle was causing some NVH from the driveshaft. I didn't get...

2014 E63S coolant change
This was totally unplanned but I did not like the appearance of the coolant in the tank. It was kind of....brown? Best case I think the coolant is either beyond its life (it's been done before so this is unlikely) or someone mixed some stuff in the past. I do know that mixing the newer, environmenta...

Re: Mercedes E63S thread
On a related note, I did some services yesterday @ 103,974 miles.

Re: 2014 E63S: oil change
Oil change @ 103,974. 8.5L of Molygen 5W-40. Will post Blackstone results when I receive them. Nothing unusual happened during the oil change otherwise. I did notice the oil level seemed to be halfway on the dipstick between min and max. I thought that might be normal but I checked it after changing...

Re: 2017 GLS550 135k Service
I get the note - the Maxlife is thicker, so that will remove the fuel economy benefit of the lower viscosity introduced with 235.15. I still don't like the idea of modifying the viscosity of transmission fluid. It's a pretty tightly calibrated system that, while it can and does adapt, is at least ex...

Re: WK2 145k Service
There's a $90 Raybestos pan/filter on RockAuto. That appears to be the only non-Mopar, non-separate filter (Dorman) reasonable aftermarket option. I also emailed ZF to ask about what's different in their PN 1087.298.360 (w/fluid) and 1087.298.361 (w/o fluid) vs. Chrysler PN 68225344AA. I also asked...

Re: 2001 Duramax LB7 Knocking
I just meant as a second opinion on the likely source of the knock. If they also seem confident in the injectors as the cause, get their opinion on a cost-effective way to proceed (i.e. test them first, replace as needed). The LB7 is old so they SHOULD have a fairly strong opinion but you can insist...
