- In this video I wanted to discuss my updated opinion on the reliability and ownership review after having owned my C55 AMG for almost 8 years!!
Summary of my outlook is that it is a GREAT first AMG for anyone who's looking to get into the European "muscle" car part of the car world!

Awesome vid brother, love C55 content😎👍🏼
Thanks!
Thanks for the video ,,well done..I agree with what you say ,,.I have a 2005 CLK55 ,,my only tip ,,replace the Crank Position Sensor before it fails,,usually at around 13 years of age regardless of mileage....use genuine Bosch only .
I have had almost no problems at all ,,all just routine maintenance ,changed all the fluids and filters ,,spark plugs , valve cover gaskets , front brake rotors and pads, transmission connector plug ,, and it did also need new front control arms.
But now it is perfect and will go for years ..
Nice video on the C55 ! I love my C55 as well. Perfect car
Thanks I appreciate it!
Got my 02’ w210 e55 4 years ago and drove it in high school at 104k. I currently have 132k and I’ve enjoyed every single mile that’s on it!!! If you keep up with the oil change intervals and with basic preventative maintenance it will be reliable, but it’s ultimately up to. Reason why so many people can’t drive around in a Mercedes especially of this era is that most of them aren’t DIY. Bottom line, if you wanna drive any old Mercedes you gotta do the work yourself are your gonna end up paying a mechanic for work more than what the car is worth!
any idea how long my 2005 c240 4matic will last? currently has 191k miles and still runs like a dream. Also, loved the vid and the c55!
my 2005 c230 has 203k miles and its driving strong. i also just installed BC racing coilovers.
Cảm ơn bạn giới thiệu và chia sẻ chiếc c55 amg rất thú vị

What would you recommend for alternative floor mats, I don’t wanna use the original ones too much, plus they getting faded a little, I want a sharp new looking for floor mats and put the original ones in the trunk.
You could look at weather tech style mats if you don’t want carpet.
Yo you’re a lot like me. I had a C55 from November ‘12 to November ‘15. Got it with 89k miles, and sold it with 160k. It was great car all around, I did eventually have oil consumption issues, engine & transmission mounts and of course the valve cover gaskets. Actually, I had a hairline fracture in the transmission housing (you can only imagine how much I beat on the car) I had the car when I was 16, it was fantastic fun lol. I did destroy the car tbh. I traded it for a ‘14 E550. The C55 is certainly underrated.
I have one, any issues with shaking when the car is in gear? Mine feels like i have a small cam but cant figure out what it is. Idle is good. Just shakes. Maybe engine mount..
That most definitely sounds like an engine or trans mount. I replaced mine about a year ago when I was getting bad vibrations at stoplights when the car was in drive.
I have same issue. Also weird idle in gear at lights
Where did you get those thumb tacks, my headliner sags
I think I got mine at staples, but here they are on amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B07X4W333F/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_y.UlFb5TDFNJZ
I just got my C55 2006 😎
Nice! Congrats Ruben. They’re awesome cars and it will treat you really well. Let me know if you have any questions about the car 👍🏼
@@Addimotive bro i remember when i was in high school i used to watch your c55 videos at school lol it’s crazy how i found mine💪🏽
8 years and only 30000miles, I have more miles on my bicycle in half the years.
You must have strong legs then
@@Addimotive I have a strong everything but thx.
Tbh yeah, that's not a lot. But kudos to keep it down.
Hey! How similar do you think your car is to my diesel engine C 320 CDI Avantgarde 2006? Similar problems?
Because your engine is a turbo diesel I would guess any similarities are pretty minimal
I don’t have too much experience with that engine though
@@Addimotive Ok, thank you for the reply. But as much as I've heard, Mercedes makes bulletproof diesel engines especially the 2.7 and 3 liter ones.
I’ve heard the same!
What year is the Mercedes
It’s a 2006

Lol thanks for watching! About to release my final video on the C55, my driving review!
No major suspension issue in 8 years of ownership? WOW. I am changing my shocks and double wishbones .
I probably could've replaced the shocks in the last few years of owning it. That might've helped me rear wheel rubbing issue slightly.
@@Addimotive Mine rear right axle bushing is broken, I might Just Need to change That. The shocks are in Good conditions, Thank God No Need replacement.
Usually the front upper control arms or chassis bushing needs to be replaced after 60 to 80,000 miles, depending on how it is used.
I've had my 05 since 2010 no issues but then it only has 39k.
Nice! Yea most of the issues I heard of don't pop up until close to or around 100k miles. But they could also come sooner as the car ages.
🤫 START IT UP ..I wan't to see you drive it like you stole it. 🤨
