servicing

Newish to the forums, but a long-term Merc owner starting with W123, R107, W124, W202 and now on to a S204 I bought a year old last August. Anyway, I object to the servicing interval being time and not mileage based. It was obviously serviced in June last year before being put on sale and I...

Dropped my car off for its A service last night. Got a brand new E Class Coupe as a courtesy car. Very happy. After an hour got a call from the service manager who said it had gone early and they found the wipers not clearing the windows as well as they should (Iknew that already) and if I...

In the cars I've had over the years servicing has always been an oil change followed by a check up. The thing is, in my opinion 100% of my car mechanical failures in life have either been time related consumables or an issue that was invisible to servicing. Let's face it, I bought a full...

Has anyone got any experience of this garage for independent servicing:- Mercedes Servicing | Prestige Or have you any other suggestion on where to take the car for servicing. I liked the look of this garage as they have access to the mercedes data base to keep the electronic service book up...

Hi all I bought the service pack for 4 services over 48 months. The car is now due it's first A service. Knowing what dealers are like do you know what is likely to be an extra on these plans even though they are down as requiring to be done at certain intervals (and are therefore really...

Car needs servicing and want to get it serviced by Mercedes. Just wanted to know, do all the dealers have a fixed price for servicing or are some cheaper than others? Im around South East London/Kent but would be willing to travel to different dealers if they are cheaper etc.

Hi, I've recently bought a C250 CDI Sport estate and it's coming up for a service whilst still under warranty for a few more months. Am I better off getting a MB dealership to do this service and cover any warranty items or can an independent cover things on warranty too? Things I'm looking to...

Hi folks, My CLS coming up for service in a couple of weeks, and the car will be 6 years old. Very aware of the benefits of using an independent specialist but want to continue the dealer servicing for the main annual service for the next couple of years to increase my chances of goodwill...

I am about to buy a 2007 E320CDi Sport which has a full MB history (I have the printout from Mercedes) The car has done 116K miles. I noticed that there is no mention of a gearbox oil change in the history printout, is this normal? Would it have been done routinely as part of one of the...

I am new to the club and therefore this may have come up before. Is it correct that for the first 4 years of my A class it is covered by Mobilo irrespective of whether I service it either with or not an official Mercedes dealership or even at all. I ask this because the Mercedes web site seems...

Hi all new member here anyone know of a good independent dealer in the Sheffield Rotherham area where I can get my E class serviced? Cheers AMGdavidg

Seriously, this seems like good value, so why was I quoted 3 trillion pounds for a service by my local stealer instead of being told about this 139 quid oil+filter service? Mercedes-Benz UK - Servicing - 7+ Value Service I wonder if they do the same for ATF changes!?

Hi all, Just a quick question.. Im planning on servicing the c180k sports coupe at the weekend.. But wanted a pipercross air filter or similar to replace the standard filter. I only ever seem to find them listed for the c200k though? from what i understand the engines are virtually the same...

Hi there, Just received my new E220 CDI and am really happy with it. I was thinking about having it remapped to give it a little bit more go however I was wondering if Mercedes would pick this up when the car goes into get serviced and reset it thus rendering the remap a waste of money. Has...
