4MATIC all-wheel drive is Mercedes' signature system, fitted to most models. The Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Daimler AG until 2022) comprises Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart and the EQ line. AMG is the performance division of Mercedes (since 1967), building engines on the 'one man, one engine' principle in Affalterbach. The factory calibration on Mercedes diesels is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1 while preserving engine life. DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on all Euro-6 Mercedes diesels. On older Mercedes diesels, Stage 1 is flashed over OBD with no complications.
The AMG community is active in Germany, but the protection is the toughest in the industry, so Stage 1 on AMG usually requires Bench. The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. Stage 1 on Mercedes often requires refreshing the adaptations after the flash. Mercedes prioritises smooth running, and Stage 1 preserves the engine's character. The Mercedes factory calibration allows a confident move to Stage 1 without hardware changes. The Mercedes community is active in Europe, with a large pool of available Stage files. Mid-range Mercedes engines are a premium segment with a conservative factory calibration, and Stage 1 preserves engine life.
