E Class Cabriolet E220d 2020
My 2015 E 220d Coupe 42.000 miles is showing a warning for an A Class service (not that I can get one at the moment). I looked on the main Mercedes site for a quote and main dealers are coming up with £712. Anyone have any recommendations of where to go in Kent for preferably cheaper?

Thanks
 
Its probably not a basic A Service. What does your dash say? A1, 2, 3...? What did the mb service include?
 
It was recommending an A7 service, mercedes includes:
Key Features of Service A
Change engine oil and oil filter (not applicable for electric vehicles)
Check charging cable and vehicle socket for mechanical damage (Hybrid & Electric)
Check brake fluid level
Correct and note down tyre pressure
Check/correct spare tyre pressure (equipment specific)
Check TIREFIT tyre sealant (equipment specific)
Check first aid kit
Check luggage compartment illumination for proper operation
Check/correct windcreen washer fluid
Check lamps in the instrument cluster and interior illumination for proper operation
Check ex-factory driving aids (equipment specific)
Fill up or replace vial of perfume atomizer (equipment specific)
Fill up Ad®Blue tank (equipment specific, after consultation with customer)
Check coolant level
Check all visible parts in engine compartment for damage and leaks
Check visible area of auxiliary belt for wear (if applicable)
Check all visible parts of vehicle underside for damage and leaks
Check condition of steering and tie rods
Check condition of front axle and front axle ball joints
Check condition of propeller shaft and flex disks
Check condition of rear axle and rear axle ball joints
Check condition of suspension struts or shock absorbers and springs
Check tyres for damage and crack formation

Additional Service Items
Automatic transmission: Carry out oil and filter change (with transmission 722.9 - NAG2-FE+)
 
So a basic a with gearbox oil. With me thats £380 for a diesel. Expect to pay around that at your local independent garage.
 
Roughly where in Kent are you? Alex Foti in Paddock Wood is well respected (Mercedes Servicing, Tuning & Remapping Tonbridge | AMF Automotive), MTA near Tenterden used to be but I'm dubious, Arrow Maintenance in Ashford are part of Arrow Taxis who run a fleet of E class diesels, they service their own and customers cars, There's another Sidcup side of the Sidcup Bypass just north of Critalls Corner, name escapes me!

Speak to Mike at MB Medway. Or take it for a run down to Olly at PCS
 
Or take it to Stevensons in Maidstone


 
Mb of medway, they are the best around Kent.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions, I am in Rochester/Chatham area so MB Medway or some of the Maidstone ones are of interest, like Stevensons. I'll contact a few and get some quotes as I guess most of these are closed (checked MB Medway for example)
at the moment and a service can wait for a little while to be honest.
 
H&C Motors maidstone. 01622 750501. Speak to Gary (the owner)
Honest guys, will not rip you off. And a free loan car if booked in advance

Yes. I have used H&C before and their prices were reasonable

Stevensons is quite local to me. They are a bit pricey though
 
I live in Chatham too & was researching where I can take my CLS when the time comes but MB Medway aren't listed on the Mercedes Specialist Finder Website, I was a bit wary of why that is? All the others mentioned above are.

Not sure about a Mercedes Specialist Finder Website, but I travel 50 miles each way to take my car to Mike (and Brad) at MB Medway. Highly recommended, know their stuff, great service. No need to be wary.

Likewise I take my cars from London to Stevenson because I am so impressed with his knowledge and quality of work. He once (unusually) attended to me in London to replace the gear selector in my stranded W210 - he did it under 15 mins when a couple of MB dealerships in London quoted me 4 hours for the labour!
