C63 service requirements?
My c63 is on 40k miles at the
Moment and will be due a service soonish, does anybody know what the required elements of this service are?
Also, has anyone done these themselves? I'm fairly competent and usually do the general services and such on other cars but these are a bit different!

Your maintenance manual is pretty descriptive of what's to be done. I follow it for major items such as transmission service, and let the on-board system tell me when to do regular maintenance such oil and filter changes.

At 40000 miles or 4 years:
Service 2/B - lots of checks and cabin filter replacement
Service 3 - Oil and filter change
Service 4 - Check bodywork & undercarriage for damage & corrosion
Service 4 - Replace brake fluid
Service 8 - Replace air filters
Service 8 - Replace diff fluid (can't hurt)
Service 10 - Clean & lubricate sliding roof rails
Service 20 - Auto Transmission - oil & filter change
Phew - long list

Need to do tranny fluid change too? Anyone know the cost of parts only . Fluid, filter etc? Trying to figure out if worth DIY or dealer. My last Mercedes, I had to drain torque converter. Is this still the case with our cars?

There's no fill tube up top. All work is done from the bottom, and yes you should also drain TC. To do a really complete job you should also flush new fluid thru the fluid cooler that's on our V8 cars. I skipped this part.
In Tucson, the AT service is $4-500.

Joe

8 gear oil 001 989 68 03 13 $20 ea
6 screws 0049903512 $1.70 ea
1 gasket 2202710380 $16.50
1 oil filter 2212770195
Also 3 " ring, general, M " 007603-012102 oil pan, cooler & tranny sealing rings???
Total labor for the tranny and a service A5 was 3.2 hours
They didn't break down the labor
Perhaps someone has the A service labor time , my guess an 1 hour
So tranny ~2 or so

I figured it would be better to have someone do it who had done it dozens of times
My time is worth something and on jack stands would take me much longer
It takes 5 w/o the convertor and 8 with it
Made financial and outcome based sense to have them do it
Just returned from a nice drive and the car feels great
Tranny service
Wavetrac
Tires
Alignment
Feels really good
