A/B Service?
Can anyone tell me what exactly is included in the service A and B on the CLK?
I know it is all listed in the back of the service booklet but mine is written in German!
Can anyone help me out, im due a service A, but may just get a service B because ive only recently got the car and want to make sure everthing is cool with it.
Cheers
