What Is A Service D On A Mercedes Benz?

MB-BTurbo

Took my B class into a Mercedes dealership today for a quote every bit my nuance is telling me I accept 1500 miles until its due a D service - half-dozen years onetime, 35000miles.

Apparently its the same equally a B service. A (+C) = small-scale, B (+D) = major.
I was told that an A was £225. Not much help equally I asked for a D (B) service but finally found out that "thats only £299". Ok, I thought only "what is done"?

I could not get an answer from him apart from "a modify of brake fluid worth £50 and an internal/external filter for air coming into the cabin (whatever that is)". I told him that I changed my brake fluid when doing the brakes six months ago so didnt need that doing.

Then what is this D service so? Can anyone shed whatsoever low-cal as to what will get washed and are they likely to pile on charges midway through equally they said they would need to check the computer with the chassis number to detect out what exactly volition need doing - although he wasnt prepared to do that then. What a headache, Im not prepared to hand my car over to a dealer to be at the mercy of what effectively is a bare cheque.

All these letters are in fact pretty meaningless. Certainly our local dealer simply sticks to A or B plus whatsoever else seems to be due on a fourth dimension basis - eg brake fluid, plugs etc.

The letter affair used to exist an indication of how long the chore takes i.due east. A service is one hr, B is two hour, C is three 60 minutes so on and then forth...

Took my B class into a Mercedes dealership today for a quote as my dash is telling me I have 1500 miles until its due a D service - 6 years old, 35000miles.
Apparently its the aforementioned equally a B service. A (+C) = modest, B (+D) = major.
I was told that an A was £225. Not much help every bit I asked for a D (B) service but finally found out that "thats only £299". Ok, I thought simply "what is done"?

I could not get an answer from him apart from "a change of brake fluid worth £50 and an internal/external filter for air coming into the cabin (any that is)". I told him that I changed my brake fluid when doing the brakes half-dozen months agone then didnt need that doing.

So what is this D service then? Can anyone shed whatever lite equally to what will go done and are they likely to pile on charges midway through as they said they would need to bank check the computer with the chassis number to detect out what exactly will need doing - although he wasnt prepared to do that and so. What a headache, Im not prepared to hand my machine over to a dealer to be at the mercy of what effectively is a bare cheque.

The messages signify how long it will accept (I think from memory D means information technology will have between iii and iv hours). The actually elements that make up that fourth dimension e'er vary.

^ Or nosotros he said above. Doh!

Thanks guys. I was told past the MB service dept that A, B, C, D, Due east, F etc referred to the guild of service. So adjacent year would be an E and so a F etc.

Im mainly trying to work out what gets done in a B/D/2hour service to see whether it is in fact worth taking it to MB or if its a giant rip off. I have full MB dealer/specialist service history and would like to keep it that fashion for resale value but need to work out whether what they really will do with which they dont seem to want to tell me.

Nope they are talking rubbish. Most more often than not ignore the messages and will go A/B alternate taking into consideration the extra time related items.

MB-BTurbo

I couldnt piece of work out whether he didnt know what he was talking virtually or deliberately feeding me rubbish. I think he was just clueless, either style not reassuring.

What is generally included in a B service over an A service? I take a feeling spark plugs volition be included which would arrive more than than the £75 he quoted which makes me nervous of receiving a bill college than quoted.

Thanks guys. I was told by the MB service dept that A, B, C, D, E, F etc referred to the order of service. So adjacent year would be an East then a F etc.

Strangely, mine needed an F concluding year and at present requires a G this yr.

Mail #6 was dismissing.

I understood each alphabetic character was a time thing based on the number of things being required.

I don't know for definite though.

Very few reset assyst plus correctly, so what your cluster is telling you is probably bullsh..t anyhow. Read the service book and it will explicate all!!!!

Thanks for that. In that location is a lot of info on the internet. Take the in a higher place mail service almost the ESS. It gives contrasting info to this and this is just on one thread. Knowing what it should exist is extremely difficult.

Im but wanting Mercedes to tell me what they volition do and how much it will toll and so that I dont get a nasty surprise at the finish of the day (my trust in them is waning fast). It really isnt unreasonable all the same its something they dont seem to be able to do. Whether its piece of cake to discover out or not is non really my trouble. Leaving a customer scratching his head with unanswered questions every bit to what he is paying £300+ for is non really ok.

Even this is only predicting. Just read the service volume! Work it out

It's hardly rocket scientific discipline fella.

Hmmmmmm.

Ever tried to figure the spark plug change schedule for a R170 from its service book?

I'yard not sure its scientific discipline as a ready of mystic clues and spells.

And I'chiliad fairly sure Assyst+ is based on upgrading from that to astrology.

Behind the scenes the dealers probably go the equivalent of Tarot cards. They take a sample of your hair and mix it with a sample of the engine oil and then burn it while cartoon the cards to decide what to do to the auto and how much to charge.

MB-BTurbo

Tin dealers put on additional charges as they see fit? I have read a few reports where they have 'checked' parts as per the service schedule only to find that parts need replacing and added £200-£300 more on top of the standard service cost.
