2014 C63 prepaid maintenance
I just bought a CPO 2014 C63 with 24k miles last Friday, and I was talked into buying the 3-yr prepaid maintenance package for $1915. As I read through the forums (I know I did this backwards...should have read the forums first, then bought), I'm thinking the 30k and 50k services would be about $200 each (Service A) and the 40k service would be in the $600-$900 range (Service B)? I'm starting to think I may not have made the right decision here.....
Am I right about the services I need in the next 3 years? Should I get a refund? (feel free to hurl insults at my stupidity....)

Do you plan on doing the services yourself? If not, do you have a preferred Indy shop you would use?
You usually save about 30%~ prepaying for the services in advance with MB. I just had my huge B service done (oil change, tranny, diff, cabin and engine filters, spark plugs, etc). It was definitely north of $1k, but was covered under my prepaid plan that I got for free when I bought my car.
Easiest way would be to call your local MB dealer and ask them to price out the next three services for you then compare. Each dealer prices the services differently from one another.

Thank you for the replies. I'll call the dealership and find out what the A & B services cost and go from there. If it's less than $1900, I'll ask for a refund. At the time, they told me the next 3 services would cost over $3600, so $1900 seemed like a no-brainer. But looking back now, I believe he was talking about the 40k, 50, and 60k services, which would be one A service and two B services. In any case, I'll find out and take it from there. Thanks again for the help.
