    Mercedes dealer oil prices

    Hi, Had my 2 yr old B220 cdi on a B service. I was charged over £100 for the engine oil alone. Is that normal? My 2010 ML350 CDI blue efficiency is due the service in a few days and noticed it had an 8.5 litre capacity and did not want to get spanked in the same manner by purchasing the...

    Cambelt Change Position on buying a car from a motor dealer

    I might have missed something as part of our recent purchase of a RX300 regarding the cambelt. Car is a mid 2004 reg and according to the lexus service book which i've now read the cambelt should be changed every 100k miles or 10 years. I have no proof it has been done despite an extensive...

    Main Dealer vs Car Supermarket

    If you were paying £25,000 for a 12 month old C Class is it worth the premium you'd pay at a Main Dealer? Any experiences of the service and back up that you get?

    Junge Sterne Guarantee Buying from a German Mercedes dealer

    I'm considering another Left Hand drive car and have been pouring over the ads on Mobile.de & Mercedes.de. If I buy from a Mercedes dealer it seems that you get a Junge Sterne Guarantee package for 24 months. This strikes me as a good option on a three or four year old car. Apparently the...

    Dealer Recommendation please

    Looking for a dealer to fix the front passenger window on my 2014 CLS Shooting Brake. Should be an easy fix (catching seal when opening door) but Sytner Carlisle can't do it. Northern England / Southern Scotland preferred but need a trustworthy dealer who knows what they're doing. Car obviously...

    Which dealer ?

    I'm hoping to order a new C class coupe ,but I want to see one first, so I went to my nearest dealer which is Drayton Mercedes Stoke. I spoke to two different salesmen one said they would have one in by December the other said between January and March. They said they were being messed about by...

    Dealer Pricing.

    As part of my B Service today, the health check tells me that my front and rear pads are 65% and 60% worn, respectively. Cost of new pads (fitted) - yes, pads, not discs? £504.28 front £397.47 rear :eek:. Now I know the dealer has a big window, but I didn't think it was to see people...

    W205 - Dealer say they fixed the interior?

    Think I have the worlds nosiest W205 C Class interior. Caught these with my phone but the phone doesn't demonstrate just how loud these creaks and rattles are! Many others including the passenger door rattling and the burmister speaker buzzing. This is the air vent...

    An Honourable Dealer

    Usual Story. Decide on new car spec. Barter for tolerable price. Place order. Mine was for a Petrol C200 Premium plus with Airmatic and leather. Paid deposit and waited 5 months. Went to pick it up. Met with salesman with a terrified appearance. Had taken the car to fill it with Petrol only to...

    Allowing car dealer to machine polish... or not?

    I'm buying a used Mercedes which is 4 years old. Overall in very good condition but has the usual swirl marks and some light scratches associated with general wear and tear and poor washing technique that I would guess 99% of the population put their cars through. The dealer is going to...

    Not very exciting (thankfully) trip to the dealer

    As the car approaches 11yrs old, time for yet another MOT. I usually take the car in early but they didn’t need it before 9.30 so left it until then. I found the dealership (MB Chester) to be the busiest I’ve ever seen it. Nowhere to park at all but thankfully a Service Advisor was showing...

    Original supplying dealer

    Is there a way to find out who originally supplied my car? The first few services were in Bristol but the car is an RY plate which is Reading. I can't see anything in the paperwork that states who supplied it. I suppose the first owner could have ordered it in Reading and serviced it in Bristol...

    Value for Money? Franchise or Independent Dealer?

    What a question? Do you buy your pre-owned Merc from a Main Dealer or a Independent Dealer? I have bought four Mercs, of which we still have the last two, and there is quite a story to each purchase. Back in 2008, I bought a second hand CLK500 Elegance Convertible for £30,000, from a main...

    Hello everyone, Would like to get your thoughts on whether Mercedes Benz could at some point cause issues with the warranty of my brand new car if I went and go a Tatcham Cat 5 security device installed. I am considering getting a Scorpion Track 5 device fitted by one of their approved...

    Anyone else had a strange 'thank you video' from their dealer?

    When my car arrived at the dealership almost 2yrs ago I received a link to a 'walk around' video of the car (with commentary) which I actually thought was a nice touch and added to the excitement of getting a new car. However, since then as I near the end of my PCP term I have had a couple of...

    Merc Dealer

    I've never been a fan of dealers of any manufacturer but my local dealer really let the brand down today on my very first visit. Can anyone point me in the right direction for parts I'd need to give a jack plug audio connection to a 'comAnd' unit on a w163 2002. I did see a post on this...
