Hi all, its my first post... but an interesting one i hope?
just about to chop in my W219 for W204 (save the story for another day) at my local main merc dealer.
Anyways this 204... when i asked to the service book the sales man toddled off and came back a few minutes later saying the service book was "electronic only" and that he'll go and get a print out.
Anyway he came back with a print but I just think that happened to be off the merc data base. It was very basic just with the service type and date.
It had had it's first 2 services with merc and it's third one at an "independents" which some how they said they checked but could not prove a record of the service! the 4th was done by them not too long back.
This is a pretty poor electronic book or are they telling me rubbish... my 219 has a paper book but is 3.5 years older than the W204.
Any thoughts?? Was an electronic service book even an option?? Think it may have been but i think i'm leaning towards a tall tail from the main dealer?
Any thoughts??
