To Service, or not to service?

Don't know about Northampton, but Mercedes-Benz Park Royal in London advertise B-service for all C-Class models as £319 for cars 3 years old or over, and £299 for cars over 6 years old. Hope this helps.

Why don't you use an independent?

bang on 3 years old and requires b service with atf change!

a mighty pricey £600! I still have 6 months of warranty left. if i use an indy will i lose that?

i believe you can now use an indi, aslong as they are VAT registred?

Using an indy doesn't effect your warranty as long as they use original Mercedes parts.

indy it is then! Found a place doing it all for 300 so i will be going there!

Be careful there - if the car is 3 yrs old this can't be the original warranty.

Used car warranties can impose specific terms.

its an approved used merc with 1 yr warranty i can only assume thats going to be ok. sod it i cant afford £600 so got no choice.
