Best Indy/Dealer for AMG service around Chicago west burbs

Looking for Best Indy or Dealer for service around Chicago West burbs. Car needs 40k mile service. It would be nice to see someone who works on AMG. Car is under third party non-MB warranty that requires services be kept up.

I went to get a quart of fillup oil on a dealer around here and they gave me a quart of Mobil 1 ESP 0w-30 for the M156. I wont be going there anymore.

I took my x-girlfriends 2010 C63 to MB of Chicago (Division st location) back in 2010 to get an oil change and drove it home to find out they never drained any oil out and double filled it. And then had the courage to tell me to drive the vehicle back to them from Glen Ellyn so I never went there again.

And 2 weeks ago took my C63 to MB of Westmont to do few things and specifically told them to replace the driving mode switch/knob as sometimes would not twist. Well they replaced the COMMAND control knob on the arm rest which was working perfectly fine. I even told the SA when he called me to tell me the car was ready and they replaced the command knob. I told him that's the wrong one. He said 'Well they went over all the knobs and switch out whichever needed to'. He was completely BS-ing me and I called him 2 days later to let him know they did the wrong one, to this day, 2 weeks later he still has not called me back and I even left a message with the follow up girl and still no phone call back.

With that being said I have used Megan Auto Werks in Villa Park since 2004. They have been great to me and I have referred many customers there.

I would give them a try and tell them Tasho sent you.

Im by Glenn Ellyn. Kids go to GBW. Where do you take your C63 now for service? I wont go to Westmont. I was thinking Naperville or maybe Gus auto Imports. Villa Park is so much closer though. Will you be taking your C63 to Megan? I was wondering if they can service the AMG.

I graduated myself from GBW in 2004. Live downtown now but I work in Warrenville (Ultimo Motors right off 88 and Winfield). And yes I will be taking my car to Megan once the factory warranty runs out in 3 months. I got extended for 4 years through SouthwestRe. I have seen them work on just about any Merc you can name and all other German brands and some Maserati's as well. Jeff, one of the owners has been there for 40 years working on Mercs so he knows them in and out.
