Service A is due
Hi guys, I bought used MB almost a year ago. I replaced rotors, pads and tires 6 months ago and engine oil (plus oil, 2 intake filters and cabin filter) 1 month ago. And now it is 90k an it is showing "service A" is due.
1. What should I do now? Should I just go and change transmission oil, power steering oil or I should worry more?
2. How can I remove the message after doing the proper service?
Thanks! P.S. I don't want to go to the official dealer, do I have any other options?

Service A is pretty much nothing but a regular oil, air and cabin air filter change. The rest is just checking this and checking that.
1. If tranny fluid has not been changed within the last 39K miles, I guess you might as well do it.
2. Here is how you do it in W204.
You don't list a W204 in your information, but I guess it's quite similar process also for the GLK.
If you are not able to do those yourself, take your car to a reputable indy shop and save a bunch of cash.
