Which fluids does MB dealership top off complimentry for routine service?
Hi,
My car is saying 'check coolant level' and when I checked I noticed that the level is low. When I take in my car for oil change will the coolant be part of the complimentary top off of fluids? Typically which fluids are topped off?

@Drazil-- mine said 'check coolant level' so I checked the level and it was low-- I could see the white area, normally you should only see black.
Yeah my MB dealer advertizes complimentary fluid top off , its probably a gimmick where they only top off washer fluid. I will just buy the coolant myself and do it -- is this the correct one--

Thanks, i'm gonna check it out... was ignoring it cuz after it showed up on the cold day, the following week the message never came up until another cold day hit. I figured the coolant volume went down due to the cold, and once the engine warmed up, the coolant expanded back to normal levels.
