Frequently Asked Questions
Does the manual cover both the pre-facelift and facelifted CLS 63 AMG?
Yes. The software spans the full C218 production run from 2011 to 2017, covering both the original pre-facelift build (2011–2014) and the updated facelift specification (2014–2017), including revised front fascia components and updated ECU calibrations introduced mid-cycle.
Is the CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake included?
The primary coverage targets the C218 four-door coupe sold in the US. The X218 Shooting Brake shares the same M157 drivetrain architecture and many procedures will cross-apply, though the X218 was not officially sold through US Mercedes-Benz dealers.
Are AMG-specific electronics and wiring diagrams included?
Yes. The software includes full circuit diagrams for the AMG engine management system, COMAND infotainment, Active Body Control, CAN-bus network topology, and all body control modules — complete with connector pinouts, ground locations, and sensor testing procedures.
What format is the manual?
This product is Mercedes-Benz dealer workshop software — not a static PDF. It runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux systems and offers searchable menus by model year, engine code, and gearbox code, giving you the same navigational tools used at authorized AMG service facilities.
