20K service for my '09 C63
Its that time! Dealership charges a bunch, would I void my warranty (extended CPO) choosing an Indy shop? Any suggestions in Houston if applicable? Certainly dont want to risk loosing coverage, not for any savings I can make by going indy.
Thanks! Erik |
I don't think the dealership can void your warranty if you have proof that the service was done using the same material the dealership uses. Should an issue arise, such as the head bolt, and you haven't always been doing your services at the dealership, don't expect them to go to bat for you against mercedes to help get your problem fixed.

US law says that a warranty cannot be voided simply because you didn't have the service done at the dealer. I don't remember the specifics, but I would keep all the receipts.

Dealer quoted $540.00, is this the going rate?
This includes oil, oil filter, brake fluid flush, dust filter, tire rotation and a few other minor check ups.
I could consider going to an indy if the saving are attractive enough. Any suggestions as to what indy shops may charge ? Any Indy shops recommended in Houston ? I live in the city. Thanks E |
