2016 AMG Prepaid Maintenance

Considering purchasing 3 year pre-paid maintenance in advance of my service B maintenance. I've been quoted $2650 (which seems high). What I can't get is transparency from the dealer on the non-prepaid cost of the next three maintenance visits? Any advice or perspective? Thanks

I could be wrong, but when I did the prepaid maintenance last week I could've sworn I paid no more than $1,800 for this. I'll have to double check

Thanks any info will be appreciated. I’m a bit frustrated with the dealer regarding a lack of clarity on the “standard” pricing of the service. I’ll certainly have the scheduled maintenance done but not sure prepaid is a good deal.

Didn’t get it in my 2016. Considering it again for the new GT C I bought. There are savings involved but I’m not sure if the savings are worth pre-paying.

3 years in and 13k, I’ve spent 600$ on maintenance. 3 oil changes. Big waste.

I did replace brake pads and fluid voluntarily for another 600$, but that was for brake dust and more bite.

No idea. IMO a waste of $$$. And you can only use Benz fluids and pads. I just did trans fluid with high end shell.

No consumables like brakes and tires.

In my experience those contracts are just another profit center, they win you lose.

You can negotiate heavily at the time of purchase since they are eager to sell the car. After sales purchase is a different story. Scheduled maintenance to be done at a MB authorized dealership to be part of your car's record is a nice thing to have. Schedule B can run up to $700 for these cars. I paid $1000 for four scheduled maintenance at the time of purchase.
