Frequently Asked Questions
What is the known turbocharger issue on the M157 engine and does the manual cover it?
The AMG M157 5.5L V8 has a documented history of turbocharger oil feed line failures that can lead to oil leaks and, in severe cases, turbo damage. This manual includes complete disassembly and reassembly procedures for both turbochargers, oil feed and return line routing specifications, and torque values for all related fasteners.
Is this manual specific to the X166 GLS 63 AMG or does it also cover other GLS variants?
This manual is scoped to the GLS 63 AMG on the X166 platform. While it shares the X166 chassis with the GLS 350d and GLS 550, the AMG-specific content — including M157 engine procedures, SPEEDSHIFT PLUS transmission service, and AMG Performance 4MATIC calibration — is unique to the 63 AMG specification covered here.

Yes. Full AIRMATIC coverage is included, encompassing air strut removal and installation, compressor unit servicing, ride-height sensor replacement, and the diagnostic fault codes associated with the system. Wiring diagrams for the suspension control module are also provided.
