2017 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Check Engine Light Codes

Park Place Motorcars Dallas in Dallas, TX, routinely decodes and repairs the most common fault codes found in the 2017 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT. Typical codes include oxygen sensor (P0130–P0167) faults that reduce fuel economy and risk catalytic damage if not addressed; turbocharger boost control or MAP sensor codes that degrade performance and can lead to costly turbo repairs; and ignition or misfire codes (P0300 series) that cause rough running and possible catalytic converter failure. Left unchecked, these problems can quickly escalate from modest sensor replacements to multi-hundred or multi-thousand-dollar repairs. At our Mercedes-Benz service center, factory-trained technicians use OEM diagnostic equipment to pinpoint the issue efficiently and provide transparent cost estimates. We often cost less than independent shops while delivering OEM parts, documented repairs that maintain factory coverage, and the immediate and long-term savings of precise diagnostics.
