CLK 280 W209 now W213
Hi, my mid 2016 w213 E Class is due its first service next Monday, the MB Main dealer is collecting the car. Does anyone have a definitive list of service actions as part of the first A service the W213 should have. I can find very little in the manual etc and the resulting documents, by experience, show very little.
 
Suspect minimal. They will suck oil out, change filter, refill, check a few basic things then call you with some extras.
 
One of the worries I have is that many of the so-called services do not involve removing the wheels. So if you have a puncture and have to remove the wheel, you find it is stuck to the hub. I found this out to my cost. A lump hammer applied to the inside of the tyre is about the only cure. Why the application of some copper grease is not part of a service, knowing the way alloy wheels can become welded to the hub, is beyond me.
