Mercedes C250 (W205)
When is first service due
Hey guys.

I'm getting really worried about the performance of my c250. I've clocked up just over 20,000kms now and the car is telling me there is still another 4000 to go before service is due. The car seems to be getting sluggish, motor getting louder, wipers need changing, and generally needing TLC.... This is my first merc, but to me 25,000kms just seems to long for the first service of any new car.... I'm taking the car into the dealer tomorrow, so wanted some feedback that others agree or disagree or have different service kms/miles....

Cheers

My MINI had a 25,000km first service and shorter periods after. I always follow the manual or service indicator on the car. Unless you are keeping your car for a long long time, I wouldn't worry about it.

Just had mine serviced at 15000 miles, which is 24000 kms approximately. That's the recommended distance I believe. Car worked great before and after .

In my case, 12 months or 20,000 KM - whichever comes first.
