Seattle area servicing at dealerships?
I searched and did not find much information about seattle dealership and servicing. I am only looking for MB dealers because I bought pre-paid mb service for 5 years.
I recently moved back and wondering which one you go to?
Thanks in advance

I prefer Larson's of Fife over Phil smart. Reason why, is they were less picky about my mods and treated me professionally. Phil smart did eventually fix my warranty but not without some arm twisting.

I recommend going to Mercedes-Benz of Seattle (formerly Phil Smart) and talking to Service Advisor Les Hart and using technician Tom or Marcus. Reason being, they're really cool about mods and getting warranty to cover stuff. I'd talk to the tech directly and build a relationship with them as they'll understand exactly what you want done and find a way to make it happen and I know they take care of my car. If you want, I can PM you some info. Tom's been working on my car all summer (since May) and I really trust his work. You can see my car in my signature's link.

Please pm info! Thank you for the reply!
We should get a meet together in seattle or something.. Like to see your R63.. I was always intriqued by that car, but never found any for sale!Reading your awesome thread on the R63.. and the references you have make me feel better already.. I believe you stated that Phil smart installs aftermarket parts under warrantY??

I'm up for a meet to fellow AMG fanatics. If you want to come down to Tacoma, caffeine and gasoline is next Saturday at Griot's Garage.
I've only had my initial 1800 mile LSD fluid replaced at MB Seattle, so I can't comment on their service beyond that. But, their showroom in airport way have banners and catalogs of Kleeman and Renntech, so I take that as a good sign for mod friendliness.
