Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG Problems
| Brakes |
- Due to the size and materials of the brakes on these vehicles, the brakes start to squeak around the 50 percent wear point. The brake rotor surfaces become uneven, causing a lip to form at the outer edge of the rotor. Because of this, the rotors are usually replaced when the pads are worn (pad life varies depending on driving style and terrain).
- Brake fluid should be flushed every two years to prevent premature anti-lock brake system (ABS) failure.
|
| Suspension & Steering |
- Irregular and premature tire wear can be caused by the front thrust
link bushings cracking and causing excessive movement in the
suspension. The thrust link bushings are fluid-filled (to help reduce
vibration), so if they crack, they will leak oil.
- Due to sticking relays, airmatic pump motors can fail, which causes
the pump motor to constantly run. Because of the battery drain this
causes, the pump will eventually fail or the battery will go dead when
the car is shut off. Worn airmatic pump mount bushings can causes
noises in the front axle while driving on bumpy roads or a buzzing
noise.
- Rear air springs (bellows) may develop leaks, which causes the air pump to run more often to maintain ride height.

| Drive Train |
A vibration felt through the center floor
of
the vehicle can be caused by driveshaft flex discs, which crack and
shred, causing excessive driveshaft movement. Not repairing these can
cause damage to the driveshaft center support bearing, or, in the worst
case
scenario, damage to the transmission or differential. |
| Electrical & Lights |
- Brake light switch failure can cause the ESP and BAS warnings to illuminate.
- The early versions of the central gateway module (which allows different systems to communicate
with each other) have software
problems.
- Lack of audio or cell phone functionality may be related to the failure of the audio gateway module.
- Many software updates are available for the different computer
systems, but if the vehicle is out of warranty, it may cost money to
receive the updates (unless it is a recall). Some updates may be
dealer-only, but a well-equipped independent shop can usually provide
updates as well.
