2012 Genesis Sedan, Whatever Benz i have at the time
New to W204
Ive been researching for a while now and finally have bought my first MB its a 2010 Mercedes c300 sport RWD with 74k miles. I plan to do most all maintenance myself while owning the car. it didn't have many service records with it but we knew the people who owned it before and they generally take car of their cars very well. My main question is what are some services i should do to get the car up to date? (assuming that services for this time have not been done)
I have already replaced wiper blades and oil and filter
I already plan to do the trans fluid change
So anything besides that stuff i should do?

You also might wanna read up a little here:
https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ts-thread.html
Not to mention all the stickies that are here on the forum about maintenance. If you really plan on doing all or most of your maintenance and haven't bought a Star diagnosis tool yet, you might want to consider it, and read up on how to do read outs and such on the computer.
Also, check for melting taillight connectors.
I believe that a good crash course.. anyone else have anything?
Oh, and welcome to the W204 owners by the way ^.^
