c400
I purchased my c400 this past april and i put on 20k miles in the past 7 months and i havent had any major issues. Oil changes every 6k miles using mobil1 0w40. I did get a new led light for the door handle under warranty and also a transmission software update. Other than that, just oil changes and im about to get new pads and rotors in the front because they are warped and new pads for the rear. Now i will just need new transmission fluid, new spark plugs, and diff fluid soon as im already at 42k miles. I can only tell you about my c400 though. Not sure how c300s are
