I use rowe on all my cars, amazing oil but it’s more expensive
Reviews of spare parts for Mercedes
You can get NGK or Bosch plugs on rockauto for around $10. Not sure which was OEM, some like NGK for Mercedes in general but Bosch tends to be the OEM maker of plugs for MB.
You can actually get decent quality oil which is not from an expensive brand for pretty cheap, particularly if you buy a 20l jug.
For example, Mannol offer fully synthetic oils which meet OEM specifications
Maybe 6-7 years on my current Mercedes ones. Still wipe like new. Well over 100k miles. Cars are stored outside in the sun.
Continentals- great handling, wear quickly, for your E63, AMGs
i use to run continental dws all season. the ps4 seems to roll smoother and less noise in the cabin. i live in nyc and we have tons of pot holes.
I have two Michelin tires made in West Germany.
OE benz brakes have small depressions drilled in to the face of the rotors. When those disappear, you need new brakes. If you see dimples, go on to the next square...I have a 2019 C43. Second set of pads front, Second set rear, 106k miles. My wear indicators are almost gone, so I have a set of OE brembo rotors and Benz pads sitting on the shelf. I am waiting for the dashboard warning light...front and rear have a sensor that will alert you when you are almost done.
From what I remember, On my c63, just the pads were $460, but the install was only $150. I brought them Akebono pads, and they said … oh these are the wrong ones. Funny my mechanic put them on just fine.
To me it seems as a rip off, even changing sparkplug on Mercedes a class w169, which is a pain in the ass, won't cost as much.
