Finally, release the tensioner to apply tension to the new belt and confirm proper alignment and operation.

To check the transmission fluid level in a Mercedes R 63 AMG, start the engine and let it idle for a few minutes to warm up. Locate the transmission dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine bay. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then pull it out again. Check the fluid level on the dipstick, ensuring it falls within the appropriate operating range indicated. If needed, add the recommended transmission fluid through the dipstick tube, taking care not to overfill.

To jump-start a Mercedes R 63 AMG, park a vehicle with a healthy battery close enough for the jumper cables to reach both batteries. Ensure both vehicles are turned off and identify the positive and negative terminals on both batteries. Connect the red jumper cable clamp to the positive terminal of the dead battery, then connect the other end of the red cable to the positive terminal of the donor battery. Connect one end of the black jumper cable to the negative terminal of the donor battery, then connect the other end to a suitable ground point on the dead vehicle, such as an unpainted metal surface. Start the donor vehicle and let it run for a few minutes, then attempt to start the dead vehicle. Once the dead vehicle is running, carefully remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of connection.

To replace a broken side mirror on a Mercedes R 63 AMG, start by removing the interior door panel to access the mirror mounting hardware.
