MB Tech in Chicago???

Anyone know of a good MB Tech in the Chicago area? Or does anyone have any recommendations as far as a good MB Dealership to go to where they've had an overall positive experience with service work? Thanks in advance.

I have all of my work done @ MB of Naperville. Very good guys there....

Call Joe Green (Service Advisor) and he'll take care of you.

They have done serious work on my car and I'm always pleased.

Great! Thanks so much. Works out perfect. I live very close to Naperville.

Yes, I'm planning on going to the meeting this coming Sunday. Of course that is if the dealership wont keep my car. I was hoping to take it in today to have the IC Pump and Tranny contamination issues looked at. I haven't had the car for too long, but I want to get these items looked into to verify whether I have them or not. A little paranoid after reading a lot of the posts.

If they don't keep your car, we can meet up somewhere and drive to the meet together. I think there will be one other C32 with us as well.

Tell Joe I said hello....you might get to see my car while you're there.

I've decided to cancel my appointment for tomorrow. Maybe I'm just a little too paranoid. Maybe you can give me your opinion when we meet up. How about we meet up right by I88 and rt. 59?

Sure thing...I won't be able to tell if the car has Gycol contamination, but I should be able to tell if the IC pump is failing.

What about the cheapest place in the area to get a Service B done? I live downtown and I'm afraid to go to Fletcher Jones, I'm sure it's going to be super expensive.

Also, how long does the service B take, assuming I have to go out of town and wait for the car to be finished?

I think my service B was $300....I'll have to look at the paperwork when I get the car back to be for sure.

Ok cool. Thanks! As far as the glycol contamination I suppose I'll just wait until I have more obvious tranny syptoms. As far as I can tell I don't have the Valeo radiator (no Valeo sticker along the top driver side). I'm hoping someone at the meet can maybe help in indentifying for sure whether I have the Valeo or not.

Thanks Jerry. You went to Naperville? I imagine it was a one-day fix?

How much is a Service C on a CLS500? I need to make an appointment at MB Naperville for this weekend. Thanks!
