Motown01

Hi all,

I had a message pop up on my dash saying "1200 miles to service A3".

I'm new to MB's and I've never really owned a car that told me when to get service. I'm guessing this is just the computer advising me to get a routine service? Am I correct?

Also, I change the oil on the vehicle myself and will handle any kind of small maintenance issues (when they come up). I currently have an extended warranty. If I am to take the car in for this "A3 Service", what am I looking to expect in terms of cost?

I'm not trying to pay an arm and a leg just for the dealership to tell me that my tires are wearing properly and they've topped my washer fluid off.

Thank you for all of your help and I hope you all had a great holidays!

my SA said it's a minor service... i believe oil change and checking fluids... he quoted me $250 at the dealership...

i'm wondering if anyone else recommends other services at this point which is 50k...

intence

my a3 service message just came on. can anyone confirm its just an oil change?

Yes, it's an oil change and they check over other odds and ends (transmission fluid, tires, brakes, etc).
