I have an 2014 ML63 with Weistec ECU and TCU tune. Also deleted the resonator. It's a beast.
Mate that would be a machine!! If you have instagram send me some videos!! 😄 Same name on insta!
The reason for the “slow gearbox” effect is because on manual mode you stepped off the gas pedal so the gearbox got confused.. keep flooring it in manual mode and shifts will become faster and more aggressive.
Hey mate! So I did do that before and it was just bouncing off the limiter. The gear changes were quick I just found the response from the shifters very slow, it was rather strange! Thank you so much for watching 😄😄😄
Love it mate!
Thank you so much Isaiah! Appreciate you bro 😊
so sick,that sound is just 🤩
it sounds sooo good 💦💦
Having the suspension in sport plus you will notice a difference. The ML63AMG is a luxury sport vehicle.
Hey Sia :) Thank you so much for watching! See you on the next one 😊😄
X5 and ml transmission are completely different. X5 it’s more superior in gearbox. Even in day to day x5 the shifts are more instant and comfortable. The ml takes forever to downshift or upshift
Loved the vid bro true about the interior its really simple i expected more accessories 😅
Haha I'm glad someone agrees! I just posted the X5M video and you can see how many M symbols there are all over the interior and exterior! Thank you so much for watching 😄
What a beast! I seen a dutch plate ML63 amg 2 days ago...
Mate they're the best 😄
That sound though 😩
Definitely agree with this one lmao
Bahah bro it was literally the best 🤤 Have you watched the X5M yet? That sound didn't roar like this but man was it loud 😳
Fortunate enough to have one of these beautiful beasts
Had a few Mercedes now , but this one , is Very much a keeper!
I enjoy it so much , it makes me forget about the fuel consumption 👍🏻
Jay, it is probably one of my most favourite SUV's I've ever driven, if I could've I would've bought this one in particular because it was so well kept! Anyways thank you so much for watching 😄😄 Feel free to get in touch on insta or fb - @sergcarreviews

Cheers Serg
Not on Instagram, but I'll no doubt look in from time to time
Got mine last year , absolutely immaculate, every single service/work ( even to the smallest of parts , has Mercedes paperwork... really impressed
Yep ..love it 👍🏻
All good mate I don’t blame you for staying off Instagram 😄 If you have Facebook I have a group there for the community too 😊
And no way!! I hope you keep it that way even though it might hurt taking it to Merc 😜😂
Great vide, yip I have one of these cars, that transmission takes some getting used to, its not a DCT but instead the 7speed Gtronic with torque converter. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_7G-Tronic_transmission?wprov=sfti1
@@laichzeit186 Mate they're one of my favourites by far!
And its so strange you're the second person to comment that but from all the research I've done shows its a DCT. Either way, it is slow compared to any standard 😂😂

great 👍
Thanks so much for watching mate 😄 See you on the next one 😄
Woof that sound is glorious. I. Like. Dirty. 😎
Literally the only word I can describe this car... dirty. 😂
@@SergCarReviews Ha! Ha! Right on.
722.9, very good transmission. No DCT
Haha so I've heard! All the sites here wrote DCT! Thank you so much for watching Jean 😊
It is not a dual clutch transmission. It is an automatic transmission with a wet clutch set up
Hey mate! Firstly thank you so much for watching! So when I was doing the research on it, all the Australian review and spec websites said it was a DCT. According to you and about 10 other comments turn out they were all wrong 😂
I own a 2014 ml 63 and without offending no one you don't know how to drive it My shift in manual is super fast close to double clutch transmission
Hey mate! Thanks so much for watching 😄 I agree the shifts are super quick but the shifters have a delay in response (in the one I drove anyway)
How reliable is this? Like compared to an E350? It's depreciating more than an E63 despite of same M157 engine...
One of the most reliable SUVs! The person who bought it had nothing but good things to say about it even after a year! By the way thank you so much for watching 😄
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for watching Arpit 😊😊!!
My only issue is delay on gas pedal when turning or when rolling stop which I hope it goes away with a stage 1 tune
How much HP will a stage one tune give??
@@SergCarReviewsaround 660hp
They are good performance value atm
Agreed!
How’s the reliability after 10 years?
Hey Ricky the previous had only good things to say about it and when we sold it the new owner only had good things to say too! They are great engines! Thank you so much for watching!!
If this AMG is the same model year as the X5M, then the BMW is better - all around. 👍
Probably one I would disagree with all in because of ride comfort! The Mercedes is so much nicer to drive. 😊
I tested a x5m and X6M. The ML63AMG is more comfortable ride in my opinion. However, the BMW I listed are more track focus.
I haven't had the opportunity to test drive a GTS.
What color is that?
Hey mate! Thanks so much for watching the video!! 😄 This car was actually covered in a Matte Grey finish, not sure the name for it though!! Have a good one!! 👌😊
Where is he driving,looks scenic.
Beautiful part of the world for sure! Thank you so much for watching 😊😊😊
Would u go this or the bmwx5m??
I actually have a review on the x5m. Have a watch 😄 and once you do... my answer is below.

The Merc
How tall are you? 5'5"?
Man something about this gen of Benz that just does it for me. Better looking than the new GLE’s imo. This thing is a monster of a grocery getter! 😂
Appreciate you pushing it up the mountain bro! Get to hear those sweet TT V8 exhaust notes, music to my ears
You are welcome 😜😜 Man it is still to this day my favourite SUV, I absolutely love it!!
