Service B Covered under warranty?

Hey,

I was just wondering.. I have a 2007 C230 with 39,000 Miles and just hit Service B... Is this service covered under warranty?

Thanks.

No regular services are covered under warranty. MB free maintenance ended in 2004.

Actually free service from MB ended in 2003 for US market.

Mine was the last year.

$599 for service B!!
Time to look for indy MB shop.

RBM in Atlanta does Service B for $365 for V6 cars. $599 is a rip-off considering all they do is an oil change and inspections (any filter replacements are more $$). I can do inspections myself, so all I have done are oil changes - $95 for the four-cylinder at RBM.

My point exactly.

For my car, only motor oil, oil filter and brake fluid were "changed". Do the inspection yourself and save $$$.

Unless you feel like paying $600 to enjoy dealer coffee, nice lady to greet you, fancy waiting room with AC etc.
