HELLO WHAT IS AN A SERVICE AND A B SERVICE IN LAYMANS TERMS !! AND ARE THERE ANY OTHERS ? :dk: FROM A NEW TO.... MB OWNER DEBS

Hi. I've just taken delivery of a rather obscure part for my W210 Saloon. I tracked the part down to Auto Diesel Services Ltd which is run by Noel Bermingham. Noel seems to have significant amounts of parts for MB and indeed other cars. Service received is absolutely superb and I cannot...

Anyone have any experience with these guys? they are not too far from me and am getting a Dyno done this saturday before i start on some tweaking, just wondered if anyone has any good bad things to say about them. cheers Alps

Hi All I purchased my 2010 C Class 350cdi around a month ago through Mercedes retail Birmingham. I am really pleased with the car. As part of an offer running on Mercedes used cars the next 3 services were included. I have had no confirmation on this so I mentioned it when I received a follow...

Hi all, This may have been posted before, but I just wanted to say how great the ribbed mats are that I ordered from SVS. Made by the original manufacturer, Mercedes benze chrome badge, poppers to fit them to the floor..perfect and great service with next day delivery. Lovely! Ian

Motorway services 'rip-off' drivers Drivers are being ripped off by "greedy" motorway service retailers, according to a survey by What Car? magazine. Motorists pay far more for such items as petrol, food and drink than they would at high street outlets, the survey showed. What Car...

New years day in Devon; almost deserted car park next to the beach in Paignton and cars parked out on the approach road which is legal in the winter months......well for all of the road except the last 3 car lengths which is past the arrow sign saying "no parking May - September". And guess who...

My W215 is pestering me for an 'A' service soon. I don't want to argue with it, as the 'A' service is much cheaper, but according to the service history, the last service, 13k miles and 16 months ago , was an 'A' too, and all the previous services have alternated A,B,A,B etc. Did the garage...

You call them when you are 20 minutes away from the airport, they meet you at the terminal, and take your car to off site secure parking. Then on your return they are waiting at the terminal for you with your car, so no transfer buses. Has anyone used them, and what is the quality of service...

Going under the banner of Mercedes Independent, PCS are based in the Ibrox Business Park, Govan, Glasgow. I am sure a few of the boys local to the area know David and the lads all to well. This indy came recommended to me from a friend of my wife's the minute I embarked on my MB journey with...

I know that some on here drive the length and breadth of the land for a living. For others, like me, driving isn’t the day job but forms a significant part of my working week. I look after accounts all over the UK for a small company so can be at all four points of the compass in the course of...

am looking for some opinions on whether the forum members here feel there is a sufficient market in Eire (Ireland) and Northern Ireland to warrant the opening of a branch of the business there. I have a contact in Eire who is capable of doing the work with some training and is eager to get...

A huge thank you to Jack for sorting my CLK 430 out today. As a recent convert to MB I was pretty apprehensive when my car suddenly developed a hesitation on acceleration, and the Check Engine light appeared. After a brief discussion with Jack the car was booked in with him within 48hrs of...

I seem to have found some OEM ribbed mats in the right colour for sale at a company called Special Vehicle services. Special Vehicle Services Ltd I've not heard of them before - has anybody used them or know anything about them? The name's familiar but I just cant remember where from.

A couple of questions about servicing (for those of you who have Omegas).. Do they send a reminder? Is it something I need to remember to do? Also I've read (here) that they give it a polish and it comes back as new.. which is great but just over a year ago I dropped mine (onto concrete)...

Hi Guys, Has anyone written a letter to Mercedes Benz customer services in the UK? I recently wrote a letter to : Mercedes-Benz UK Limited, Delaware Drive, Tongwell, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, MK15 8BA I wondered how long I should wait for a reply? What would be a reasonable amount of...

Just wondering in between services what, if anything, should be changed/maintained etc. On my old car (my Fiesta from Universaity days) I did oil, filters: oil, air, fuel, and spark plugs - as and when I felt like it. And other things like changing batteries when required. The CLK get...

I am having THE mother and father of a bad experience with Mercedes / AMG 'customer services'. As the the owner of a 'factory special' manufactured in 2000, picked up direct from the factory, and never put on a customer data base (until I asked for it to happen in 2006), I was advised by...

Hi all, I had a 'Service A due in x miles' for a while, so in between saving up and finding time to take it in, it exceeded the 'due in' amount of miles. So I finally got it quoted and booked in (exceeded by 200 miles) and had to make a long trip, and now it says 'Service B exceeded by 800...
