Service schedule

[OneForTheRoad]

Is there a way to know when the Mercedes recommended ATF change or any other 'expensive' service is due (what other regular services could be expensive)?
My car (W246 - 2016 model year) has completed 60k miles now. Still unable to decide whether to go with a ServiceCare plan.
Most main dealers around my area are quoting approx. £560 for the upcoming B service (includes brake fluid change), and an additional £50+ for MOT.

Yeah put your reg into that link I gave you and fiddle with the mileage , you can go up but not down. Most dct are 62000 miles or 5 years. So yours should of been done in 2021 by rights and due again in 2026.

The only way for you to know is via the service history.

You'll need STAR in order to check on the car what was done to it.

If your 2016 car has the 7g+ transmission, then it should have been done at 5 years, I.e. in 2021.

The service history is important, because the service plan will not cover any 'catch up' items - I.e., if the ATF wasn't done on time beforehand, then the service plan won't cover it. It will only cover items that fall due durating the lifespan of the plan, but not items that were missed before.
