In order to remove the front bumper, switch off the ignition. • Remove the ignition key. • Open the hood. • Fit the protectors on the vehicle. • Remove the four upper screws of the radiator grille. • Remove the first two with an 8 mm socket bit. • Use a 10 mm socket bit for the other two. • Note: The radiator grille remains on the bumper. • They are both removed later as one unit. • Raise the vehicle to chest height. • Turn the wheels to the side. • Now remove four nuts, one bolt and two expansion rivets. • This is the first nut to be removed. • This bolt must be removed next. • Then the three remaining nuts are removed. • Also remove the three bolts shown here on the underfloor. • The expansion rivets are best removed with an assembly wedge. • Detach the front section of the fender liner with the engine compartment paneling as one unit. • Do not remove the highlighted bolts in order to detach both parts jointly. • Proceed in the same way on the other side. • Remove the screw on the retaining bracket. • Fold the retaining bracket towards the vehicle center. • Pull the retaining bracket to the rear and remove. • Proceed in the same way on the other side. • Also remove the two covers next to the front fog lamps on the front bumper. • Use an assembly wedge for this. • Remove the bolt behind each one. • The bumper is now loose in its guide rail. • Detach the bumper with the help of an assistant. • Note: Also disconnect the following four connectors when removing: • on the front fog lamp on the driver side, • the connector for the PTS sensors, • opposite this the connector for the outside temperature sensor, • and the connector for the second front fog lamp. • The positions of the connectors are highlighted here on a detached bumper. • Reinstall in the reverse order. • Note: The front fog lamps on the SL 63 AMG are permanently fixed in the bumper. • Since they are also removed, their adjustment must always be checked. • Set the vehicle to the basic setting of 'Normal driving height'. • This is the case when the two lamps shown here are not illuminated. • Set up the headlamp tester at a distance of approx. 10 to max. 30 cm in front of the front fog lamp. • Set the unit to 2 % and check the lamp. • After a successful test, the SL 63 AMG is ready for the road again. • -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • instagram: • / mbownersclub • twitter: • / mb_owners
